Migrate Kontact data/settings from 3.5.9 to 4.1

Yesterday I installed KDE 4.1 including the new kdepim version. I then copied according Kontact folder from
~/.kde/share/apps and ~/.kde/share/config to ~/.kde4/share/apps and ~/.kde4/share/config and then I started the new kontact version. However no settings, no mails etc. was setup.

So I wonder how can I import the old settings into the new kontact version?

Try importing.
As for your emails try this:
settings/account
~/.kde/share/config
kmailrc. kmail.eventsrc, kmailsnippetrc, emaildefaults and emailidentities, email.eventsrc
some others that are korganize and kabc names with them.

That didn't work....

However I found meanwhile this tool: http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php…4?content=85769

It converter everything except for the smtp servers in kmail and the email identities... however the addressbook, the email accounts etc. were konverted.
