The import process should be fine, the issues are more likely with download/export process. Internally, Hyperkitty doesn't store the original email objects, only some of the headers and body of the message. It then generates the export archive on-demand by creating the Email object and stitching them together for mbox archive. You can just take a database dump and migrate that. If you are using postgres, there is a pg_dump command that I know of. I am sure something exists for Mysql/mariadb too. I would recommend using this method for migrations. You can also use django's dumpdata[1] and loaddata commands to export and import data from one installation to other. It should work when moving from one database type to other in theory. I haven't tested it to comment on how successful it would be.
