The method I've used has been to rename the old mail folders and copy 
them into the appropriate top mail directory.  Then I open the folders 
with the old messages and mass select and move them into the 
appropriate new folder.  That trick most recently worked like a charm 
when I decided to move my mail archive from Netscape to kmail.

illusion, and with doubt come tentative half-measures -- and nothing
worthwhile has ever been accomplished by tentative half-measures.
