You can pipe it through procmail and that will deliver as Maildir. There is a 1.0 stable branch on the dovecot website which does exactly what it says on the tin.

I will check that out for sure but the problem is that I am using a Sendmail as my MTA and the mailboxes are mbox format. Is there any stable 1.x version of Dovecot?
Thanks,

I have a mail account which needs to be accessed by 4-5 people simultaneously through IMAP. As of now I have configured it on the respective clients using the same username and password so we have multiple people accessing the same account through their mail clients simultaneously and it is working flawlessly. Is this alright or can it lead to some problems or corruption of data later ? What is the best way to allow multiple people to access a single mailbox for read as well as write operations ?
I am a newbie to dovecot, but from the top of my head, I must have read somewhere that the dovecot 1.0-test version is the one that will implement shared Maildir. The feature is not in 0.9.xx. So ostensibly what you want is shared Maildir, but the way you have setup should work. Just tell them to make a decision between themselves who is allowed to do any deletions and there should be no problem.
I stress that I am a newbie, so I may not be right. Please see if you can get some info about "shared Maildir" from the docs.
