        I'm coming in late to this so sorry if this has already been suggested, but pine comes with a mailutil app if compiled with the maildir patch..
http://www.math.washington.edu/~chappa/pine/info/maildir.html
For example...
mailutil copy ~/mail/saved-messages #driver.md/Mdir/saved-messages
I used to transfer all my mail into maildir format (about 8 years worth - including sent mail) and it worked fine.
