There are sooo many files related to kmail2 ...

I can't tell you exactly which files you should remove, but here are 
some pointers where the files might be: Have a look at 
"~/.kde/share/apps/". There are probably (I have only 12.04 to check) 
directories "kmail2" and "kmail-migrator". Then there are files in 
"~/.kde/share/config/" with "mail" in the name. On my 10.04 system (with 
kmail1) there are these:

emaildefaults  emailidentities  kmail.eventsrc  kmail.notifyrc  kmailrc  
kmailsnippetrc  mailtransports  specialmailcollectionsrc

Everything else you find with "mail" in the name is probably from 
kmail2. Finally there are files in "~/.local/share/" related to akonadi, 
but I don't know if they are only used for kmail2.
