I am using SuSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10 and went as you suggested to: Personal Settings -> KDE Components -> Service Manager Under Startup Services there is the Network Status Daemon. I clicked on it and then stopped de daemon and restarted it. Subsequently, I launched my dialup connection and then KMail flawlessly downloaded my mail messages through this connection. What remains is how this can be made to work without the fiddling. Should I file a bug report somewhere? Best regards, Paul.
