Don't know about the rest, but the "send later" feature has hit me in the 
past, too. What can happen is that a message you suspend with "send 
later" actually gets sent automatically after a few, if, 
in "settings->configure kmail->accounts->sending->send messages in 
outbox folder", you have "on manual mail checks" or "on all mail 
checks".
(Remember that "send later" puts the message in the outbox folder, not in 
the drafts folder).

So, to avoid surprises, either use "save in drafts folder" instead 
of "send later", or use "never automatically" for the above setting.
