IIRC, KDE 4 really became properly usable around 4.2, and of 
course, around that time, kmail when to hell in a handbasket, 
because they added that akonadi trash to kdepim and switched to 
that for kmail's backend. *bleh*

kmail has a great UI, but its backend sucks big time, and since 
AFAIK, they've never acknowledged that it's a horrible design, 
they're probably never going to fix it... :(

Oh, well. On the whole, KDE 4 has been quite solid for quite a 
long time now, and nothing else even comes close to what I'm 
looking for. Fortunately, the transition to KDE 5 should be much 
smoother, because they don't have to redesign all of the guts 
this time. But still, I'd just as soon not jump on it very 
quickly.
