Try using double slash.  For example,

% mailutil copy -kw //tmp/test.mbox 
"{server:143/imap/novalidate-cert/notls/user=username}testmailbox"

to transfer /tmp/test.mbox file to users IMAP testmailbox.

% mailutil copy -kw //tmp/test.mbox 
"{server:143/imap/novalidate-cert/notls/user=username}//spool/username/testmailbox"

might work if mailboxes are not on the user's home dir.

% mailutil copy -kw //tmp/test.mbox 
"{server:143/imap/novalidate-cert/notls/user=username}#driver.mix/testmailbox"

to specify a mailbox format...

The mailing list archives, I supposed.  Mark provided great support and 
gave lots of advice on the list.
