Using mutt as a mailbox converter

Body

I'm planning to move all my mailboxes to an IMAP server running on foolab.org, use offlineIMAP to sync between vader "my laptop" and naboo "foolab.org". It will also allow me to access my email from multiple computers at the same time.

I'm using mutt as my primary email client.

The big problem is offlineIMAP needs a local Maildir while I'm using mbox

I can upload the emails from mutt to the IMAP server but why do I have to redownlosd them again ? Beside, it's a lot of manual work.

I didn't really find a good mbox to maildir converter so I decided to use mutt.
