Mailhandler Mbox module provides a retrieval library that will be used to retrieve mbox file messages. That works with the Mailhandler module to parse the elements of mbox file emails as Feeds mapping sources when importing content with Feeds and Mailhandler.
Mbox
Mbox is a generic term for a family of related file formats used for holding collections of electronic mail messages. All messages in an mbox mailbox are concatenated and stored as plain text in a single file. Mbox usually came from Mailman archives or others mails software.

Usage
Enable all modules: Feeds, Mailhandler (and its dependencies) and the "Mailhandler Mbox" module.
Create a new node type for the importer. For instance "Mbox repository". Each node of this type will hold each Feed importer configured later on. You could have a different set and/or repository per node, for instance.
