Hi Volker,
I had a similar problem when swapping to mutt and linux. I just moved the windows mail
directory into the linux mail directory where all my mail folders resided. This seemed
to work for me.
It's probably better to copy the folder first before moving, in case it doesn't work.
Once a copy is in the mail directory, and you are satisfied that mutt can read it,
either delete the old directory, or move the old directory.
HTH,
Andrew O'C
