For some values of "use" and "usability"... I've used it extensively, and 
even when it was too broken I switched to Thunderbird (which I cannot 
remember crashing, maybe once or so), I still used kmail occasionally (like 
once a week), if only because it was the default mail reader in KDE and I 
let it fire up kmail when clicking mailto: links.

With KDE4 I really tried using it as my primary mail client again but had to 
give it up.

Your statement "restarting it usually solves most issues" also seems, to my 
mind, to contradict the statement that it is usable - that's my subjective 
opinion of course, but I also don't think mainstream users find such issues 
in mail clients acceptable.

My mail was about the suitability of kmail for release so there's no need to 
get personal. (And I don't hate kmail, I quite like its features which is 
why I spent time on bug reports and testing.)

Cheers,

Marcus
