You might try chmod-ing it to 4755, or you could chown it to $USER.$USER
and then you'd be able to use the binary of Kmail yourself, but of course
non of the other users would be able to use it. That is if there are other
users on your system using Kmail. You might also try re-installing the
Kmail RPM from the installation CD's and see if that corrects the problem.

What ever you decide to do to correct the problem something, or someone
has changed the permissions on the binary file and that's why you can't
use it except as 'root'.
