Hmmm ... can't tell if this is the case. Anyway I suspect that maybe
link within your profile *might* be a problem. Have you tried to somehow
unwrap that link to the local harddisk (inside your profile) before
importing? Just to verify if the reason for your problems *is* or *is
not* the symlink. Please be careful and take extra care to backup your
mozilla profile and the mail boxes before doing this. I don't want be
responsible for any lost mail ;)
