Hi Rigo!

Please read the FAQ which is part of the KMail documenation. There is 
explained what to do w.r.t. subfolders.

Furthermore, please note that using Mutt and KMail on the same messages 
is very dangerous because Mutt will change the mbox files without 
changing their dates and therefore KMail can't notice that its index 
files are out of sync with the contents of the mbox files. One solution 
is to delete all .*.index* files each time after running Mutt and 
before running KMail. A much better solution is to store your messages 
in Maildir format.

We have already thought about this. But so far nothing is planned.

Regards,
Ingo
