Hmm. Are we talking about IMAP or about Local Folders (including mail 
downloaded via POP3)?

For IMAP:
Nothing needs to be restored because everything is on the server. The 
easiest way to restore is to re-download from the server.

For local mail:
The actual mail should still be in ~/.kde/share/apps/kmail/mail. It is 
not moved to ~/.local/share/akonadi during migration. Maybe that's the 
problem. Did you only back up ~/.local/share/akonadi?

Hmm. I think the categorization is stored in Nepomuk.
