could you check the md5sum of the deb you downloaded? On my side both - the 
deb from my webspace and the local copy - have the same md5sum. 

dbcf407f4bac5abe541aea7599d3a99c  
kmail-trinity_4%3a3.5.13-0debian9+r1258263+pr10~squeeze_i386.deb
dbcf407f4bac5abe541aea7599d3a99c  /var/cache/apt/archives/kmail-trinity_4%3a3.5.13-0debian9+r1258263+pr10~squeeze_i386.deb

could you please post a copy of the dpkg error message?

on the other hand, kmail has a bunch of dependencies, which you have to 
download and install manually (but I think you know that already).
