The 'mbox' format is the standard format used by unix apps, kmail does not use it. Take a look at the directory .kde/share/apps/kmail/mail kmail seems to hold each mail in a file by itself. This would make it rather difficult to work on the export feature. An interesting discussion in Feb'07 is at http://osdir.com/ml/linux.ubuntu.devel.kubuntu/2007-02/msg00001.html Currently, there does not seem to be a clear cut 'select and export' feature. thanks Saifi.
