I know I shouldn't have tried to use the kpilot sync mail condunit...
The following is not (just) a kpilot bug:

I used the kpilot POP Mail condunit. I configured it to send mail using kmail, left \
e-mail address $USER, and Firewall $MAILDOMAIN. I wrote a short test message on my \
pilot, and synced. In kmail, a new folder appeared, above the inbox, without any \
folder name. That folder had a single message - my test message. From was $USER. I \
then told kmail to delete that folder (containing only a single message). kmail \
instead deleted all folders in my Mail directory, and the Mail directory itself, \
freeing up ~400MB of disk space.

Good I had a backup!
