I've got my settings still at automatically synchronizing but upped the interval a bit. I want the automatic sync since using KMail for GMail was triggered by my wish to get rid of the GMail Notifier in my browser (too invasive). And now KMail isn't synchronizing all the time anymore (combined with changes described below).

Synchronization seems to go a lot smoother/faster now :) And I guess it's time I'd go over my mails and start using the archive feature instead of leaving everything in my inbox. Before starting with KMail I didn't even know disconnected IMAP existed, but I'm reading up on it.
