I have an old mail file in mbox format, which I'd like to bring to my KMail inbox. What is the simplest way to do that? (All my KMail folders are in maildir format.)

Hi,
one possible solution is to add the MBox into KMail (Settings -> Configure KMail -> Accounts -> Add -> MBox) and then copy the emails to your maildir folders.
Note that the copying might take some time (depends on the amount of emails) and progress indication is very poor (pretty much none), so be patient :)

Thanks very much - that worked perfectly.
