The following should work:
1.) Create a new "temp" folder in mbox format.
2.) Copy all messages you want to copy to your desktop to the temp
folder.
3.) Copy ~/Mail/temp to a cdrom.
4.) On the desktop, start KMail and select Tools->Import Messages...
5.) In the KMailCVT Import Tool chose "Import mbox Files", click Next
and then select the temp file on the cdrom.
Alternatively to the steps 1-2 you can also simply save all messages
(but only per folder) with File->Save As. KMail saves messages in mbox
format.

Ingo
