kmail2 question on Fedora 15

Hi

I have finally gotten kmail2 to run on my Fedora 15 machine.  I ended up using 
an entirely different mail directory.  I was able to import the mail from the 
old directories into new versions.  But I do have one annoying problem.  My 
mail is delivered directly to the machine, and spooled to /var/mail/user-id.  
kmail was configured to go check the spool periodically, move the mail into my 
inbox, and delete the mail from the spool.  I haven't found a way to get 
kmail2 to do this.  Currently I have added the spool as another mailbox, and 
when mail shows up, I manually move it, and then manually run a script to 
delete it from the spool.  How do I setup kmail2 to do the previous behavior?  
Thanks.
