I'm not sure what you mean because KMail keeps all e-mail on disk.
Each KMail folder may map to several files (it depends on the KMail
folder's `Mailbox format':  maildir vs mbox).

Below you can see how my `archive' folder has a `2006' subfolder with
`rcvd-mail' and `sent-mail'

Also, please respond to the list, this way everyone can benefit (and
correct my errors!  :)

Cheers,
