For most packages, I would ask you what your USE flags were, but KMail 
seems to rely on dependent packages for tweaking its internal parts.

Do you have any KDE framework/library USE customizations set?  I've 
tried to keep my KDE/QT setup pretty generic, since I've run into weird 
behavior before when trying to avoid certain dependencies.  Learned my 
lesson the hard way.

I'll check on my setup later for comparison.  Maybe it has to work in 
combination with another setting?

This is a good suggestion, I'll try this later as well.
