A shot in the dark: have you tried closing KMail, issuing the command:
akonadictl restart
and restarting KMail? This solves my problems, which are admittedly different from yours
and caused by Akonadi, but it's worth a try.

Sometimes (about one time in three)
when I open KMail the message window is in a strange form.
Most of the entries in Inbox are threads,
I cannot change the date order by clicking on Date,
and the Subject, From and Date columns are squashed together on the left.
Basically, KMail in this state is unusable,
as I cannot access recent messages.
Closing KMail and re-opening it does not improve metters.
Logging out and in again occasionally works.
But usually I have to re-boot to get KMail back into normal form.
Is this part of the KDE/KDEinit bug(s) I've been reading about?
Any suggestion of a quicker way to return KMail to normal form?
