Good news is, OS X makes this easy. Focus your
attention to your old home directory. Everything you
need is in there: old mail, safari bookmarks (in the
library folder). Dig around and you'll find all your
old stuff.
A nice trick I used to do with a dual boot Mac is to
boot into 9 and simply copy your old home directory,
in it's entirity, to the new homed dir folder (replace
the folder itself if it's the same name). Boot back
into X and run a disk permission and update the OS and
you're all set.
