i can confirm that the problem exists in KDE 3.5.8-RELEASE too. i hade KDE 3.5.7 installed and my section was:
[IMAP Resource] Enabled=false HideGroupwareFolders=false TheIMAPResourceEnabled=true TheIMAPResourceFolderParent=.1709087027.directory/INBOX
i had to add manually there: TheIMAPResourceAccount=1709087027
and folders were recognized as IMAP resource.
i did disable Groupware checkbox in kmail config, and re-enabled, but that still didn't make the TheIMAPResourceAccount option to appear.
