Thanks,

I've done a little more research and it appears that Cyrus uses a
non-standard message format unique to itself.  I'm not really sure
about that, but that is the impression I get.

Anyway I found some conversion tools that will convert to Cyrus
format, but nothing that will go the other way around.

I'm going to see if my client can just hook up an Outlook client and
copy the e-mail to a PST file via Outlook without my having to convert
the raw Cyrus files.
