Well, I don't use any Mac platform stuff, but I've put the script that I
used to make the changeover on my site. Also, what problem (exactly)
are you having with the conversion? Is it making the maildir
directories with the new/cur/tmp subdirectories? Are the messages
getting put in there? Is it erroring out before even starting the
conversion?
Here's the link to the script that I used:
