kmail: message archive and restore - RFH

[gerry gavigan]

This feels like a stupid question but I've checked the archives and the Kmail 
handbook and couldn't find an answer

I'd like to back up my mail messages onto a CD-ROM and restore them into my 
inbox (or another folder) prior to doing a hardware upgrade and re-install

I've experimented with moving a few messages around but I lose the indexing 

Help would be appreciated even if it's which part of the TM I should FR
