KMail migration to another computer

G'day All Trinity Gurus,
    I am currently running KMail on a very old KDE/Trinity installation.
  /etc/issue shows "Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS"  which needs to be pensioned off 
immediately.
    I have installed tde-14.0.4-ubuntu-16.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso onto a 
newer computer.  The installation seems OK and I managed to transfer 
the mozilla bookmarks to the new computer  but getting KMail across has 
me stumped.
   Googling did not produce anything useful. :-(((
   On this old computer the KMail info seems to be stored in
/home/glen/.kde3/share/apps/kmail
   but the new installation seems to have a very different directory 
structure.

  So, can the KMail settings and emails be copied to the newer computer?
If anyone knows how, please let me know in GOF-speak (that is words of 
2-syllables or less).

Ta,
Glen
