[Dovecot] Import from Evolution

I need to import the mail database generated by the evolution mail reader into dovecot. Evolution stores its mail in maildir format (fully standards compatible, I think); I would be using the maildir format in dovecot. Is there anything in the wiki, etc. explaining exactly how to do this?

Why do this? Evolution is hopelessly broken, and is not likely to be fixed in the forseeable future, and I would like to keep my mails in maildir form. Reviews of kmail are very bad, and thunderbird uses the mbox format for storage.

Thanks in advance - jon
