I copied kmailrc, kmail.eventrc and kmailsnippertrc from a backup to my current .trinity/share/config/ (there was no kmail2rc) and restarted kmail, but I still see only the base folders (inbox, outbox, sent-mail, trash, drafts, templates) even though, when viewing kmailrc, the filters are all present. (See the attached image.)
Why don't they appear in the Folder list? How can I fix this?

I wonder if your problem is not that kmail "trashed" your filters but that it somehow ignores kmailrc (I don't know why however).
In your OP you said "once again", but I never in over 20 years had kmail do something like that, so it seems directly linked to your settings.
I haven't used SUSE in the last years (I used it when it was SuSE) so it's difficult to guess what it could be. We need someone with a deeper understanding of kmail works.
I've been moving kmail's files between machines several time and ever only had to recreate the indexes and re-enter some passwords.
