After a bit of testing to make sure I didn't lose any messages,
attachments, etc, it seems that this DOES work from some other mailer
(not Kmail) if all the headers are exported with the text, AND there
are no extra separators added (such as ==== , etc).

First, thanks to JoeHill and John Wilson for the replies. By doing
text as above, it can be done in one easy step, and you don't have to
go through Mozilla. I usually use TheBat for "strange" mail
conversions, as it can handle several formats well, both in and out.

J> Doesn't KMail have an option to store mail in mbox format yet? <EG>

Yes, and it can be selected on a per-folder basis. But no mbox export,
that I can find, IF mail is stored in another format other than mbox.
Am I missing something?
