Anyone know of an app that will allow me to browse my old archived mbox files without resorting to importing it into Mail to do? Maybe with simple search features?

Drag the .mbox file onto BBedit and it will show a list of all the files that make up your .mbox. Double click on the 'mbox' file and you'll see the contents in one long file.

Thanks for the reply ... I just realized I can double click the mbox and Mail will open it without importing it.

Thanks for the help!

Apple makes things TOO simple sometimes :-)
