i've just upgraded to opensuse 11.3 / KMail Version 1.13.5
Using KDE Development Platform 4.4.4 (KDE 4.4.4) "release 2"
and the problem still exists.
Unfortunately this means i'll have to use either the web-based ISP access or 
try Thunderbird for my business needs. At least my Blackberry gets the emails 
correctly.
