KMail archive

I keep my email on a CentOS server, in ~/Maildir/ .
I run dovecot/IMAP on the server,
so that I can read the email on various Fedora laptops.

I want to off-load some email folders containing old email,
eg In-05, Out-05, etc, perhaps to a directory ~/Archive/ .

a) What is the best way to do this?
Would simply mv-ing ~/Maildir/.In-05 to ~/Archive/ confuse dovecot?

b) If I then want to read the old email in ~/Archive/
how can I do this with KMail?

Any suggestions or advice gratefully received.
