I have a backup of mail messages I have from back when i was in school using

Gmail can access it just fine but it can't find anything except my inbox (which 
I can't even find).  I've moved my mail directory and I can view the emails 
using alpine but I cannot view my inbox using alpine.  Also, although Gmail can 
get my new test messages, it can't find the messages in ~/mail where I am 
viewing them with alpine.  How do I make it so Gmail can pull from ~/mail or 
~/Maildir because I also converted the messages in ~/mail to ~/Maildir format 
but although I've tried
mail_location = mbox:~/mail
mail_location = mbox:~/Maildir
mail_location = maildir:~/mail
and
mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir

None of this worked but mail_location = maildir:~/Maildir is the only one that 
will at least allow me to get test messages in my inbox which Gmail can then 
pull.

How do I resolve these issues?
