Fwiw, I have some slrn spool to Maildir translators here which should
work with notmuch:

Perl: https://yhbt.net/public-inbox.git/tree/scripts/slrnspool2maildir
(It still uses the Email::* namespace, which I'm slowly getting
 rid of in public-inbox due to performance and inactive upstream...)

Ruby: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190104013522.stng6gwauwnr6wbi@starla/
(doesn't do any header rewriting)

Not directly related to notmuch:

I'm planning on expanding public-inbox to include a local client
tool which can index, search, and optionally cache NNTP and HTTP
messages from any NNTP and public-inbox HTTP instances.  Maybe
IMAP, too...
