If by IMAP format you mean that mail is stored on an imap server then you 
can copy mails from the gzipped archive, which I assume to be mbox, to the 
server:

Thunderbird AFIAK stores local folders in mbox format, so you can just 
open the mbox file, mark all and copy to your imap folder and let 
thunderbird do the hard work.

Another solution is to script it. I made a script two years ago for just 
that as I migrated all my mail to imap - I'll see if I can find that 
script, but I think tools are also distributed with cyrus-imap.

Cheers, Erik
