I had that option already enabled ("Send messages in outbox folder: On All Mail Checks").
What at the end helped me was the Arch wiki (which is a wonderful source of information):
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/KDE#Clean_akonadi_configuration_to_fix_KMail
I did not strictly follow, but after backing up the akonadi directories, I opened
SystemSettings > Personal
and deleted the KMail Folder resource, which contained my outbox.
After that I restartarted akonadi and reopened kmail. My outbox was back in another resource and I can send mail again.
Kind regards Rainer
