You can use formail's (from the procmail suite) -s switch to
split up an mbox.  (Doing '-s procmail' with procmail set to
Maildir delivery allows doing additional sorting as you split.)

http://batleth.sapienti-sat.org/projects/mb2md/ contains a Perl
script that I've used to convert mbox files to Maildir.  It can
do entire trees or just a single mbox.
