Try mutt.
I'm regularly doing things like this:
for f in `find -type f` ; do mutt -f $f -e "push T~A\nas+$f\nq"; done
To explain the stuffed part: T~A\n tags all messages in a folder,
as+$f\n applies "save to +$f" to allt hese messages. q quits. (Yes,
I am using non-standard key bindings.)
In my scenario, the source folders are all mbox type, but the
targets are varying in folder type, partially mbox, partially
maildir.
