Hi, KMail maintainer here.

For servers without UID support, we would disable this feature.

Sorry, that patch was before my time, I usually try to deal with every patch we
get. That patch is now against KDE3, which is feature-frozen. I'd much prefer a
patch against the Akonadi POP3 resource.
Implementing it in Akonadi would also be a bit easier, since that has
consistent notifications about deleted items, and also unique Akonadi item IDs.
The POP3 resource would just need to remember the Akonadi Item ID<->POP3 UID
mapping, and listen to deletion notifications.

The Akonadi POP3 resource is currently very much work in progress, I haven't
been able to finish it yet, but I will do that eventually of course.
My plans also included addressing this bug, but I can't promise anything.
