The "requires KDE" I can understand being a bad thing for some people.  
The rest, though, I find very strange.  I've been using KMail since KDE 
3.0, and Kontact since it was released, without any issues.  I have over 
50 folders (with sub-folders) holding 1.5 GB of messages, with some 
folders having over 20,000 messages.  Never had a problem with slowness 
(except the period where the IMAP server was running Courier IMAP, 
switching it to Cyrus sped things up a lot).

As for non-KMail IMAP clients, the ones I know and have used:
  - evolution (horrid thing, too much like Outlook)
  - thunderbird (nice, cross-platform)

Personnally, I'd recommend sticking with KMail, but I'm a KDE-whore.  :)
