mbx is the name of a format that UW-IMAP supports. It's an
all-messages-in-one-file database format file. It's not as ugly as mbox where
all the messages are concatenated together (which requires so much
re-organization when doing IMAP access), but the file is really a kind of
database with the messages and some binary glop.
qmail does not have native mbx support. However, grab the imap-utils package
(from the same place as uw-imap) and drop the dmail program in your .qmail file
to deliver to your mbx mailbox. See "man dmail" for more information.

Any way to get qmail to handle mbx format?

If this is "mbox" format, it's trivial (see "man dot-qmail"). If this
is something else, we need a better reference.
