(Forwarding to MLUG at David's request. If you reply, you should include him in the CC: to ensure that he sees it.) You can connect to GMail via POP and IMAP. Click on Settings and then on the "Forwarding and POP/IMAP" tab. Should be relatively simple to configure Kmail to use it; I was using Thunderbird to access my mail for the longest time, but switched to the web interface recently. I like the idea of using GMail instead of the ISP's mail service since my mail isn't tied to any one ISP. Bell in general has gone downhill over the past several years. I don't even use their phone service anymore, and they have lost me as a customer for life.
