For new messages, procmail would be the tool of choice.  Simply append a
/ at the "mailbox" name.  This tells procmail to treat this as a Maildir
spool.

For converting your messages, formail + procmail would be the right
tools.  After you converted your .procmailrc, run:

cat ~/Mail/* | formail -d -s /usr/bin/procmail

This will "respool" all the mbox files under your ~/Mail/ directory into
the new Maildir spools.
