Stop thinking about importing.
Point Seamonkey at Dovecot (I assume it can have multiple mail accounts
like Thunderbird). Then just copy the emails across just like you'd move
anything else around in Seamonkey (or Thunderbird).
What format the backend stores the email in isn't really important.
Unless (which may well be the case :-) you want easy access to back them
up, and to understand how the backend works.
Cheers,
Wol
