Not knowing the status of OpenSUSE, I can't answer definitively, but the 
kaddressbook maintainer has backported a fix that allows the use of old 
distribution lists.  I have just tested, using a list created some time back 
to send a message to myself at three different addresses.  All arrived.  I'd 
suggest that you set up a similar test group, and check that it works.  If it 
does, you can simple carry on creating your new group.  Starting to add a name 
brings up a list of possible matches, so it's not as bad a job as you think.  
Having said that, don't forget to organise backing up the contacts.

Drag and drop them.  Copying may be safer than moving - at least until we are 
sure that it's not only stable, but that we understand it well enough.

If the addresses are there they are available to KMail.
