there are gmail preferences for kmail below;
	
>You can use the following information to configure POP with many mail 
clients. If you encounter difficulties, we suggest contacting your mail 
client's customer support department for further instructions -- we're not 
able to provide assistance with configuring mail clients not listed here.
>Incoming Mail (POP3) Server - requires SSL: 	pop.gmail.com
>Use SSL: Yes
>Port: 995
>Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - requires TLS: 	smtp.gmail.com (use 
authentication)
>Use Authentication: Yes
>Use STARTTLS: Yes (some clients call this SSL)
>Port: 465 or 587
>Account Name: 	your Gmail username (including @gmail.com)
>Email Address: 	your full Gmail email address (username at gmail.com)

>Please note that if your client does not support SMTP authentication, you

I do not have any problem in kmail with these issues...
