I have a workaround that is acceptable for me. I'm running KDE 4.2
(obviously all instances of kontact here can be replaced by kmail)

I exclude kontact from sessions and I add a script to Autostart to start
kontact every time I log in. The shell script contains the following:

kstart --iconify --skiptaskbar kontact

This works to send kontact to the system tray without showing it at all, and it
also does not add an entry to the task bar. The only annoying things are that
the first time I click on the mail icon after a new login I have to click the
mail icon twice, and also that on random occasions (very rarely) kontact will
still open full screen.

I probably should be using the -windowclass option but ... once I got it to
work I didn't bother playing with more options.

I know people have suggested this kind of solution in previous posts but I just
thought I'd add a confirmation of at least 1 user running KDE 4.2 that has a
solution.
