In 4.1? .. works for me. Of course it isn't bug free, but it isn't in KDE3 
either. 

KNode suffers a little bit from lack of love - but wrapping of sent posts was 
fixed recently - and I hope you don't send in iso-8859-xx charsets ;-)

KDE4 apps in openSUSE use ~/.kde4/ - so it won't automatically use your old 
KDE3 settings in ~/.kde/.

When I switched to KDE4.1.0 five months ago I initially tried moving  
everything straight over - but I had a lot of weird little issues - so in the 
end I decided to reconfigure stuff (kmail, akregator, korganizer, knode) from 
scratch to be safe.

Moving the e-mails themselves is of course no problem at all. Generally my 
experience is that data migrates seemlessly, settings not quite so. 

Only one thing to do - try it. If you're just a little bit careful with you 
can do it without risking losing anything.
