mbox to maildir conversion

So,

it's going to happen finally, I'm moving from pine to something else
(mutt, emacs, who knows?). I also want maildirs along the way.

I'm a little confused on what is the best way to convert my several gig
of mboxes to maildirs. There seem to be lots of home grown perl scripts
out there. Do people have a favourite?

Also, is there a recommended number of files per directory? How do people
roll these folders over when they get too big?

Thanks,
Mikal
