Which Kmail version are you using? Eg. did you install the "KDE4.6" one? Or the Kde4.4 one? I am using the KDE4.6 one (Kmail version = 2.0.89 in Help->About) and GMail accounts do work. However, these are accessed through Akonadi and for that, akonadi needs to be running. With the KDE4.4-kmail, I had similar errors on occasion If the kioslaves are failing, you could try rebuilding those: "kde-base/kdebase-kioslaves" And after that, rebuild kmail -- Joost
