This is indeed possible with KMail 1.5, but there is no option 
available in the configuration dialogs. You just have to 
manually edit the configuration file

$KDEHOME/share/config/kmailrc

so it includes the following entries in the respective sections:

<-- snip -->

[Folder_local_root]
isOpen=false

<-- /snip -->

This prevents the local folder tree from being opened at startup.

<-- snip -->

[General]
startupFolder=<folderpath>

<-- /snip -->

This will open the specified folder at startup. Just search your 
kmailrc file for a section like

[Folder-<folderpath>]

to find the correct string for your folder.
