I have a mbox file of emails.  I want to convert this to Maildir giving me individual message

user and it appears that it will "distribute" the converted messages into that user's INBOX.

I don't want to put these mbox messages into any particular user's Maildir hierarchy, just
export to file-per-message format to a destination directory of my choosing.

Is this possible?


Yes. 

[root@ketola /]# mkdir /test
[root@ketola /]# chown vmail /test
[root@ketola /]# doveadm backup -u sami Maildir:/test/

done.
