I recently installed a fresh kubuntu 10.04 and couldn't use kmail because of this bug. I followed some of the steps in
http://userbase.kde.org/Akonadi_4.4/Troubleshooting and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/akonadi/+bug/578357
in particular:

akonadictl stop
rm -r /storage/home/nuno/.local/share/akonadi/db_data

sudo aa-complain mysqld
sudo aa-complain mysqld-akonadi
sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor reload

mysql_install_db --datadir=$HOME/.local/share/akonadi/db_data

akonadictl start

and it solved the problem. I honestly think that this should be considered a high priority bug, since a new user would be baffled for the needs to go through all the hoops to have basic functionality (email!) working...
