I remember there were some utilities distributed with wu-imapd source
that might do what you want. A perl script that would split mbox
mailbox into maildir format is also trivial to write. If you are
transferring between two IMAP servers (one using mbox, the other using
maildir), you can also use utility such as imapsync and not worry about
the storage format of particular IMAP server.
