Ouch. You are running KDE as root? This shouldn't be the reason for your 
problem but I strongly suggest to run KDE as a normal user.

Normally KMail will automatically show all folders that it finds in 
~/Mail. I have no idea why it shouldn't work for you. Try if removing 
your kmailrc (make a backup!) and/or the index files helps.
