No problem with sendmail.
You just have to redefine the local mailer to something else than
the standard sendmail "mail.local".
Look for 'procmail' in the sendmail's README. 

BTW, you can use something else than procmail ... maildrop for example.

To convert .... humm, set up a POP account with old mails (mbox) and
an IMAP account for new mails (maildir). Then, users can "drag & drop"
theirs mails from one to the other using theirs MUA.

Good luck.
