How to import an .imapmbox into Mail.app
Authored by: deeraeya2 on Aug 03, '09 03:29:00PM

Just wanted to thank you for posting this tip. This had been annoying me for ages, anytime I wanted to archive IMAP mail, Mail.app was re-downloading everything. Since IMAP tends to get random disconnects etc when doing 10000+ emails that sucks, not to mention was very slow.

I can confirm that the re-name to *.mbox, copy and rebuild method in the parent works on Mail 3.6 in 10.5.7

Hazzah!
