Gnus does understand mbox format files.  I have the following snippet in
my gnus configuration:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (setq
   mail-sources '((file :path "/var/mail/ucecesf")
                  (file :path "/home/ucecesf/mbox")))
#+end_src 

and the emails are picked up from there perfectly fine.  Whether this is
sufficient for your actual use case, is another story.
