Looking further into my problem I tend to think that it is my ISP. Running the Network Kmail setup /receiving extras I found that if I used check what the provider wants (or something like that) it wanted to have APOP. Until now it was just plain text what was required. APOP (whatever that is) though does not seem to function properly because I receive following error message:
Login via APOP failed. The server may not support APOP, although it claims to support it, or the password may be wrong. The server terminated the connection.
But this wasn't the error you talked about in the original post. Like I said, I get those "unknown host" errors too from time to time, even though both my DNS and POP is on my local LAN. I'm 99% certain it's a KDE/KMail bug
