KMail doesn't use Akonadi at all in KDE 4.4. It might use Akonadi in KDE 4.5. The only thing using Akonadi by default in KDE 4.4 is the new KAddressBook. AFAIK. So KDE 4.5 might even be more problematic in the beginning. Especially when I remember the roughnesses of KDE 4.3.0 and KDE 4.4.0 I do not suggest to ship a .0 or even .1 release of KDE. Even KDE 4.4.2 had quite some bugs that KDE 4.4.3 fixed. So shipping KDE 4.4.3 or 4.4.4 oder 4.4.5 IMHO could well be a better option that to ship KDE 4.5.0 with Debian Squeeze. Sadly I have not seen any KDE 4.x.0 release yet thats really suitable for Debian Stable.
