Not well known, but I am aware of the following, which may prove
useful.  Its basically a python program to analyse each message from
the mbox and add it to the maildir, plus a very small shell script
which acts as the master process, feeding an external tool to split
the input mbox, and the python program.

I'm sure there are legion other methods - but hope this is of use.
