Create new nnml equivalents of old nnfolder groups. Enter an nnfolder group. If you care about the order in which the articles will be moved, then re-sort it e.g. by date with `C-c C-s C-d'. `M P a' to process-mark all articles. `B m' to move the articles, selecting the equivalent nnml group. Once you're sure that everything has moved as expected, arrange to delete old nnfolder groups in *Group* with `G DEL'.
