There's nothing really to transfer. KMail writes perfectly normal messages files, in either maildir or mbox format (configurable in it's options.) If you use it's default maildir format, mutt will happily use them without change. If you already had mbox format mail folders, then mutt or pine will use them without configuration. I don't know if pine speaks maildir, I don't use it myself. You might have to link KMail's default ~/Mail to ~/mail You should always take care about using multiple mail clients at the same time on the same mail folders (I mean literally at the same time, with both open.) I've used KMail over imap for ages, and if it's not available, ssh and pine, or webmail (Squirrelmail) if ssh isn't even convenient. One mail folder, multiple clients from multiple locations, no problems.
