+
+I think you can export email folders, filters and address book from KDE3-Kmail to   
+KDE4-Kmail or  kmail2
+
+Are you using Mageia 1 or Mageia 2?
+
+In Mageia 1 the folder of Kmail is in  home/user/.kde/share/apps/kmail. 
+
+In Mageia 2 the folder of Kmail2 is in home/user/.local/share/local-mail/
+
+
+I do not remember if these options KDE3 are all correct, because I do not have 
+the kde3 to verify.
+
+
+Export email:
+In KDE3,  you can to export the kmail folders with the emails. To export, you 
+click on Kmail folder, and right-mouse button, select the "Archive Folders", 
+which will create a compressed archive (zip, tar, etc.)
+
+Export filter
+In KDE3, the Kmail filters can be exported. In toolbar, in "settings" and in "Set 
+filters", the file of filters can be  exported
+
+Export kdressebook
+In KDE3, kdressbook can be exported. In toolbar, in "Tools", in "address book", 
+will open a new windos.  In toolbar, go to File, export "kdressbook". 
+
+
+Import email folders to KDE4:
+In Mageia 1 with Kmail or In Mageia 2 with Kmail2 (KDE4) these "Archive Folders" 
+(zip, tar, etc) can be imported, In toolbar, "file", "import messages", and 
+select "import a archiving KMaill"
+
+Import filters to kmail or kmail2 in KDE4: 
+In toolbar, in "settings" and in "Set filters", the file of filters can be 
+imported.
+
+Import kadressboof to kmail or kmail2 in KDE4: 
+ In toolbar, in "Tools", in "address book", will open a new windos.  In toolbar, 
+go to File, import "kdressbook".
