I've used that successfully before as well, but the original question
is about merging together two mailboxes.

I was going to recommend using Thunderbird to import the mail into
your .mozilla profile, but Thunderbird only imports mail from Netscape
Communicator 4.x, Eudora, Outlook, and Outlook express.

I think Angelo's IMAP solution may be the best.
