would be the correct one, as it says it is maildir format means anything under Mail is your mail and imap will handle the rest
however this will impact Kmail if you try to read/write in same directory. This is why my advise - rethink the whole setup.
Use mail_location = maildir:/var/spool/dovecot/%u/Mail or similar
You would use Kmail as imap client and not as local mailbox reader ;-) Forget that local reader part - you will use whatever imap client to access the mails from everywhere. This was your task correct?
log_path = /var/log/dovecot/dovecot.log info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot/dovecot.info etc is set in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-logging.conf
