In principle migration should be a matter of:
1.) Moving your mailbox from the old ~/.kde3 directory to the new
~/.trinity directory
2.) Replacing all instances of ".kde3" with ".trinity" in
~/.trinity/share/config/kmailrc
Both those steps should be completed BEFORE starting TDE's kmail for the
first time--if kmail is launched without the changes, it might very well
rewrite your kmailrc file in response to not finding its mailboxes, and
make recovery a whole lot more difficult. Needless to say it is a good
idea to back up your home directory before moving to a new system! ;-)

I believe so, however I will let someone on the
list who has actually
done
this migration respond with more information. ;-)
FWIW, in spite of a lot of help, I am failing dismally at this at this
very moment. If I succeed I'll let you know how. I have to have
these emails in their folders. And although I suppose that KDE 4 is
marginally better than suicide, it is not by much.
Good luck!
