Occasionally, after my system hangs (after forgetting to kill my Firefox instances), Kmail forgets my customized folder settings (thread messages, prefer html, sort message list latest first) and I have to reset them all. Sometimes, too, it erases all of my mail filters.

/home/user/.trinity/share/config/kmailrc

Personally I'd setup a cron job to backup the entire folder on a routine basis...
