As part of a class I tried to setup a gnupg and send an encrypted
email. KGPG was helpful (even though I used the console) but couldn't
get Kmail to properly encrypt with the receivers public key. Evolution
wasn't as picky. This was on Centos 5.2 however.

But basically, if I had to randomly guess, I'd assume that Kmail was
the problem.
