That may be true.
But it doesn't alter the fact that KMail is absurdly complicated.
What does akonadi add to KMail?
I assume it should make integration with Kontact better,
but in fact it is even worse than it was before,
which is saying something.
I have no idea. I gave up on Kmail a very long time ago and use
Evolution (under KDE). It has its own problems from time to time but in
general I'm happy with it.
