Thanks all , I follow the advises, I could migrate successfully my
email, identities, addressbook, Accounts, organizer and feeds . 


BTW, maybe my next email . When I compile a kernel with root user (use
about 3.6 Gigas) , and exceed the amount of free disk, and when kde
can't write anymore things (because no space let on device). After this
when I reboot the laptop, sometimes I loose all the configuration of kde
session, like left menus, widgets positions etc. 
In the other day, breaks all my kmail configuration, which only solution
was delete .kde , and migrate the important data. Things like remember
the columns that choose, don't remember after close kontact and worst of
all, don't display emails unless I refresh one or two times the box. I
notice this happens when I had paste throw a disk full, even printing
the page came all in white.
Please ask me , if I could give you any information that could help.
Some functions to sanity .kde configuration like export and import maybe
could solve this kind of problems.

ah some config directories was very old, I kept configuration from kde
3.x (had the date of 2006-01-21)

Big thanks to all.
