I just started the new KMail. It used the old mails as the old version 
would have.

If you need to be sure it doens't corrupt anything, copy ~/Mail to 
somewhere else or create a tar archvie
#> cd
#> tar cvzf mails.tgz Mail/

Then you can always restore the old directory with
#> tar xvzf mail.tgz

Cheers,
Kevin
