             How can I then redistribute all my old mail so it is

that (look for mbox2maildir) but a  procmail-recipe can do it too. Be
careful, you want to preserve  as much information as possible.
           For example, make sure you use a tool that preserves
your IMAP  keywords. Usually tools that use the IMAP protocol will
preserve  these and other IMAP metadata.  Also note that if you
convert to maildir-format mailboxes, you  may not be able to use
procmail to set keywords -- let us know  what you discover in this
department.  Good luck with the conversion!   Nancy    (sent via

 Thanks Nancy.... I'll report back what I find.... it may be a while....
another, unrelated problem is taking my time now. :-(

 I'll have to come back to this later.
