I was trying to restore email from local thunderbird download data. None of the script I found could work. This script is modified from superuser.com/questions/105653/how-to-convert-mboxo-mboxrd-to-mboxcl-mboxcl2 Which works for me, using this script I could use doveadm import to restore my INBOX(I don't know how to restore the Sent mailbox). If this script is useful, I would rewrite one for python3 and following the mboxrd spec.
