Well, I recently upgraded to KDE 3.2 and KMail 1.6 (included in KDE 3.2) has some 
import wizards built-in (not sure if it did prior to this version).

One in particular migrates from Unix mbox format, which is what Evolution uses.  I 
repeated the wizard for each folder I had in Evolution.

The migration wasn't flawless (some e-mails were truncated in the header such that 
there is no body), but this is after migrating from Outlook to Evolution and again 
KMail.  Suffice it to say nothing important was lost and the actual wizard worked 
slick.

I'm not in Linux ATM, but I believe it's under the Tools menu.

HTH,
Curtis
