Config data is the real problem. It is likely to get lost on the 
migration. As this has always been the case with almost all upgrades of 
KDE PIM (e.g. when the configuration of the sending accounts was moved 
from kmailrc to another file or when the configuration of the identities 
was moved from kmailrc to another file) I don't see why we should handle 
this differently for this upgrade. A possible solution would be to leave 
kmailrc untouched and use kmail2rc for KMail 2, but I'm not sure it's 
worth doing so.
