Well unfortunately an initial hopeful start has turned completely to
custard.  Kmail is now duplicating multiple messages every time it checks

Looks like I'll be uninstalling it again.  Obviously the Akonadi thing
again and now all of the subfolders of my inbox have disappeared.  I swear
it gets more broken every time I try to use it again.
