The mbox format is not really standardized and it's not unlikely that 
MailMate could have issues with some mbox-files (to be honest I didn't 
spend a lot of time on this importer). If you can generate a (small) 
example file then you are welcome to send it to me off list and I'll 
look into what goes wrong.

In general, it's best to migrate via IMAP, but that is not an option in 
this case. What format does MailSmith use internally? If it's in the 
standard email format then you might be able to import directly from the 
messages folder using “File ▸ Import Messages”.
