This seems to bee a problem with KMessageBox. 
In kmkernel.cpp in KMKernel::initFolders there are checks like 
 
  if (the_inboxFolder->canAccess() != 0) { 
      KMessageBox::sorry(0, i18n("You do not have read/write permission to your inbox folder.") 
); 
      exit(1); 
  } 
         
These messageboxes lead to the crashes. kmail crashes also if you do a 
chmod 000 on any mailbox of outbox, sent-mail, trash, drafts, inbox or 
~/Mail. 
 
If you comment out these five KMessageBox lines kmail doesnt crash but 
also doesnt start. And that's another problem! 
I have ~/Mail on a cfs on my laptop so it is only available if I really 
need it. But I have some IMAP accounts in kmail which I can't use 
without creating a dummy ~/Mail dir or mounting the cfs. 
 
regards, 
Christian
