What format would you like them to be in?
If you want them as isolated 'elements' (E-mail messages), I believe the
default setting would do (looking at an old version of KMail). Under
~/Mail, you should be able to identify all of your mail, which is sorted
quite sensibly.
If you wish to migrate your mail, e.g. to Thunderbird (strongly recommend-
ed), have KMail store your messages in MBOX format, which is a collection
of E-mail messages appended. You can then move such MBOX files from
~/Mail, which will in turn be recognised (or importable by other mail
clients).
Look under Configure -> Folders -> By default, message folders on disk
are: Flat files ("mbox" format)
Hope this helps and good luck with Kubuntu,
Roy
