Please note that I sent a reply to the sender address of the above mail, to
which I got a error notification after 4 days:
----- Transcript of session follows -----
<[email protected]>... Deferred: Connection reset by mail.sonny.com.
Message could not be delivered for 4 days
Message will be deleted from queue
[I keep the full error notification mail in case you want to have a look.]
Here was my question: Maybe it would be useful if the answer could be in the
Icedove/Thunderbird FAQ ?

Could you give me a hint on how to achieve this "import"?
[There is a page on the Cyrus wiki about MBOX migration but all the
links to the actual scripts are dead :-/]
Thanks,
