I tried that, too, but I first would have to upload some 5.7G of mail to some friendly imap server... That never worked out for me. So, I'm also one of the people who is more less stuck. At the moment, I actually compile an old version of kmail myself so I can continue using it.

Assuming that those 5.7G of mail are not offline copy of some IMAP account (in which case you wouldn't have to upload them since they are still on the server anyway), it should be sufficient to a maildir handler to the top directory of your mail storage location (unless this contains a mix of maildir and mbox folders in which case you can either convert the mboxes to maildirs beforehand or use a KMail folders handler, aka "mixedmaildir")

Oh, yes, it's a mix. This is the ~/Mail I used first with elm, then with pine, then with kmail over the past decade. It's a mess -- especially since there are also mails in ~/.kde/share/apps/kmail from my first attempt at using kmail2, and I haven't managed to copy those to my main ~/Mail. There is mail from several pop3 accounts -- I never managed to become friends with dimap.
