23 Which Kmail version are you using?
24 Eg. did you install the "KDE4.6" one? Or the Kde4.4 one?
25
26 I am using the KDE4.6 one (Kmail version = 2.0.89 in Help->About) and GMail
27 accounts do work.
28 However, these are accessed through Akonadi and for that, akonadi needs to be
29 running.

31 With the KDE4.4-kmail, I had similar errors on occasion
32
33 If the kioslaves are failing, you could try rebuilding those:
34 "kde-base/kdebase-kioslaves"
35 And after that, rebuild kmail
