[kde-linux] Importing mail from older mail system.

I have a Slackware Linux system with two users, safe and safer.
The mail in safer is actually from an older system which had a directory
called safe. I can view it OK when I sign on as safer. Now I want to 
consolidate the two bodies of mail, the filters and so on.  When I attempt ot 
import the mail from safer to safe one of three things happens:

1. The mail imports but it disappears when accessed.
2. The import filter immediately says 100% has been imported.
3. I get a message denying my access to the folder. But everything in safer 
has had a chmod 666 -R *

I also have a folder of mail from a still older system. I would like to import 
that too.

Any suggestions? This is frustrating.
