Yes, you can't avoid having at least akonadi-server merged with kmail, it's a 
hard dep on kdepimlibs:

$ equery depends akonadi-server
 * Searching for akonadi-server ...
kde-base/akonadi-4.3.2 (>=app-office/akonadi-server-1.2.1)
kde-base/kdepimlibs-4.3.2 (>=app-office/akonadi-server-1.2.0)

No, at least mine doesn't here.
 
I forget exactly what I did to achieve this, it was something like having 
trouble getting akonadi to work right, so I set all the kdepim apps to use the 
resource files directly in the fashion of KDE-3.5
