If you don't want a flamewar started, why are you being so polarizing?

Did you look at bugs.kde.org, if that's already reported? If not, please file 
a detailed bug report, so the KMail developers can keep track of it and 
eventually fix it.

It basically works, but will lack certain features, such as full-text search.

You can just switch off Nepomuk, for example via system settings.

There's been a bug in < 4.6.0 (or .1, maybe?), which once fixed, made this 
problem go away.

Your approach sounds a bit like asking a doctor "I think my leg hurts, can you 
chop it off?". It's certainly *one* way to go about it, but likely not the 
ideal route to take. Legs that do not hurt can be quite useful. :)

Cheers,
