Quoting from the reference Slávek gave you above:
<quote>
Final R14.0.0 cannot be used. In fact, for Jessie should not be released at 
all, because at that time Jessie was too moving target => updates in Jessie 
caused an invalid dependencies.

I recommend using the R14.0.1 preliminary-stable-builds. Compared to R14.0.0 
contains some useful patches. Packages are currently available in alternative 
apt source known as 'preliminary-stables-builds'. It is sufficient to use one 
line to the apt source:

deb http://mirror.xcer.cz/trinity-sb jessie deps-r14 main-r14
</quote>
You will also need the key:
# apt-key adv --keyserver 
keyserver.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net --recv-keys 00A58606 A04BE668

Note that Slávek says that you only need the one line in your sources list.

I would expect it to sort itself out.  You can use:

# aptitude install kmail-trinity 

or Synaptic - or even apt-get!
