kontact is blank, kmail doesn't know imap

[Pierre Abbat]

I know I had kmail working before, because it came up and asked for my 
password on the IMAP connection.

I just installed kdepim and ran kontact. I got the following messages:
-bash-3.2$ kio (KMimeType): WARNING: KServiceType::offers : servicetype 
Kontact/Plugin not found
kontact: WARNING: Couldn't find autostart/korgac.desktop!
Settings|Configure Kontact displays a dialog box with "Empty Page" at the top 
and "Select Components" at the bottom (which brings up another empty dialog 
box), and below that the five buttons Help, Defaults, OK, Apply, and Cancel.

I then quit Kontact and ran Kmail. It shows 4207 unread messages in the IMAP 
account. Attempting to configure Kmail brings up another blank page. 
Attempting to access the IMAP account results in this error:
kmail: ERROR: : couldn't create slave : Unable to create io-slave:
klauncher said: Unknown protocol 'imap'.

What am I missing?
