+    In some cases even this workaround has not been enough.  If KMail still
+    behaves strangely for you after doing this, you may need to move KMail's
+    configuration file out of the way in addition to removing its IMAP cache.
+    To do this, "mv ~/.kde/share/config/kmailrc
+    ~/.kde/share/config/kmailrc.bak".  After doing this, KMail should behave
+    better, but you will need to reconfigure all of your accounts.
