Did you also change ownership and access to all of the files and subfolders,
not just the folders themselves? :)

Many thanks for the help.
I created the account and copied the Mail folder into darren/Mail as you
suggested - and changed the owner to darren:users from root:root.
I now can see all the folders I created but the contents are blank (even the
inbox)
Almost there I guess !

I believe you need to make a new account within kmail then copy your untared
file into it manually. At least this is what I need to do with many other
email clients.
