I double checked but it was already disabled as I don't use it. However 
disabling "nepomuk semantic desktop" in the same dialog, killing processes and 
restarting kmail apparently did the trick.
I had not tried because I thought it would prevent akonadi from starting but 
obviously this was not the case. I feel a bit confused about what is really 
needed to run kmail now and what will be in the future. I don't think I want 
nepomuk around if I get the kind of hit I experienced but I've read at least a 
blog entry that says nepomuk will be one of the premiums of the new kmail. (?)

Thanks for your suggestions
