Opening an .mbox file of emails

[BroodsSexton]

I have an mbox file of emails downloaded from gmail.  What's the easiest way for me to access and review them?  Any thoughts?

mbox is a text format, so you could open it in notepad or whatever (though it'll be kind of awkward, you can at least read it--it's okay if you just need to quickly look up a couple of things).
 
Thunderbird you can install the free importexporttools plugin and import them.  http://kb.mozillazine.org/Importing_folders
 
There are various mbox to PST converters (for use with Outlook) but I've not used them.

Thanks.  With some dumb luck I figured out how to import it into Mail.  Viola!
