I messed up my email today through a combination of stuff-ups with procmail and dovecot. The result was that I ended up delivering some email messages to the root Maildir folder instead of the sub-folders. The files are in the correct format but have names like msg.3BXE, msg.2BXE etc.

That would be MH format.

Of course these don't show up in my IMAP client so I can't read them. Does anyone know a way I can point some sort of email client at these to read them? Or a way to transfer them under Maildir/new so that I can read them as part of my normal inbox? I know that some of them have attachments.

Just mv them into new/
