I've been trying to figure out how to make dovecot read the system standard /var/mail/user, which is in mbox-format, while at the same time using Maildir as the preferred method of storage.

Use something like safecat[1] to feed your Maildir inbox. You can run safecat from sendmail directly or via the .forward file. That's how I do it.
