Does anyone know of a mailbox merging utility?



I know it's a bit OT but does anyone know of a utility for merging
mbox type mailboxes?  I want to merge two mailbox files in the sense
of adding them together and then deleting all duplicate messages.

I have mbox1 and mbox2 where mbox2 will have some newer messages not
in mbox1 and mbox1 may have some older messages not in mbox2.  I just
want to add the newer messages from mbox2 into mbox1.

Don't say "use maildir", I have been using maildir but the
disadvantages outweigh the advantages for me.  If I can do this merge
then mbox format is just so much more convenient, I don't have any
issues with locking problems, only I use the mbox files in question
and new mail doesn't get delivered to them.
