KMail is nice - however, for IMAP, KMail does NOT support the use of 
email filters. (Booo) Perhaps in an upcoming release it may.

The Mozilla site has a how-to if you need to "export" your email from 
KMail. Mind you, I use the term export lightly.

It's time consuming but rather straight to the point. I did it, and I am 
very happy I did so.  T-Bird does support IMAP (Coo) but I don't use it 
thus far.

The filtering is far better then KMail's (IMHO) and like you, am trying 
to keep my mail clients even in both FreeBSD and Winders.
