Any suggestions re. modifying the Migrate module so as to copy to file just a sub-tree of the folder structure ?

I would like to regularly be able to obtain a sub-tree of my mail folder contents, 
as set of text and html files, in a similarly named set of directories, with the same 
tree structure.
 
It looks as though a modified form of the Migrate module should do this 
- can anyone offer me any advice as to how to go about doing this this ?
