Try mailbox2dbmail? (http://cvs.dbmail.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/dbmail/contrib/mailbox2dbmail/) It might choke on some malformed emails, but should work fine. Or you could move them from the local mailbox to dbmail-imap manually in mozilla thunderbird. Or, if you have a UW-IMAP server handy, you could import the mboxes into it, then use imapsync. I did something similar recently to migrate a courier-imap setup to dbmail. -Sri
