After updating to 1.5.4 with apt on Debian testing, KMail crashes every
time it tries to read or modify a mail folder. I'm using maildir folders
and I've emptied each folder with no effect. Sometimes KMail stays
running long enough to compact the folders and tidy up (the .index files
all show timestamps in line with the last run of KMail). All except 3
folders are now completely empty but still KMail crashes when I change
folder. Changing from the inbox to the outbox causes KMail to be
unresponsive for a couple of seconds before it crashes with no messages
or KDE error box so I never get a chance to see the backtrace. 
Running KMail from a console I get:
*** KMail got signal 11 (Crashing)
once I've clicked on any folder.
It also crashes when I try to view the properties of any folder (e.g. to
view the mailing list entry).
