You are correct. I just `guilt import -P blah /tmp/mdir/cur/X` and then hand-edit the patch to remove headers. Last night I was thinking about making a `guilt import-mbox` that'd import a mbox or maildir. I don't know off the top of my head how much `git am` would help in this instance.
Feel free to make the import-mbox or whatever command :)
