Hi,

one possible solution is to add the MBox into KMail (Settings -> Configure 
KMail -> Accounts -> Add -> MBox) and then copy the emails to your maildir 
folders.

Note that the copying might take some time (depends on the amount of emails) 
and progress indication is very poor (pretty much none), so be patient :)
