They should install these certificates or you can end them along;  Kmail
has an option in the crypto backend for this which is actually

  @item --include-certs @var{n}
  @opindex include-certs
  Using @var{n} of -2 includes all certificate except for the root cert,
  -1 includes all certs, 0 does not include any certs, 1 includes only
  the signers cert (this is the default) and all other positive
  values include up to @var{n} certificates starting with the signer cert.

So might want to set this to 2.
