The problem is with the "From " line at the start of most emails.
KMail is used to parsing mbox-format mailboxes, which delimit mails
with "\n\nFrom ".

A rather elegant solution (for me) was for procmail to pass mails
through a script which added a space to all lines beginning with "From "
(apart from the first line), before sorting it into mbox folders for
KMail to suck.

YMMV.
