I face the same issue like rainer that some folders are not showing up in 
KMail but all are visible in akonadiconsole. Very visible it is for my 
ionos.de address , where my INBOX is affeced. But also for my dovecot handled 
address.

my workaraound is to reset the content types in the properties of the folders 
via akonadiconsole (right click on the folder select "Folder Properties". For 
me the "content types" is empty than the folder is invisible. So I add 
"message/rfc822" to the content types close the dialog via Ok. Reopen it and 
add "inode/directory" close again and voila the folder is visible and useable 
in kmail.

The strange thing on database level it has both mimetypes already attached. 
Removing and readding the mimetpyes triggers something that fixes the invisible 
state of the folder. 

And this workaround only works till you restart akonadi.
