Have a look at
  http://perl.overmeer.net/mailbox/html/jump.cgi?Mail::Box&1185

Something like this:

 my $mgr  = Mail::Box::Manager->new;
 my $maildir = $mgr->open(...);
 my $mbox    = $mgr->open(type => 'mbox', folder => '/tmp/mbox.all',
     create => 1, access => 'w');

 $maildir->copyTo($mbox);
 $maildir->close;
 $mbox->close;
