Well there goes the "gmail" hypothesis then .. :)
I have IMAP to a personal dovecot, a couple gmail addresses, and one exchange
server (via IMAP). So it's hard to tell what causes what. But this is
apparently a general issue with kmail / akonadi.
(Even if any of the server behaves badly, the old kmail was certainly robust
enough for it. I'm still using one on a different laptop that connects to same
set of servers / accounts and it doesn't have problem).

I also don't like that the new kmail often gives no feedback. If you ask it to
update a folder (forgot the exact term), it may just sit there giving no
indication whether it's doing anything or not.
