If you want to create a file that contains a single message in mbox format,
create the message as a MimeMessage and use the writeTo method to write
it to the file. All you'll need to do is first write a UNIX-style "From" line before
the message.
If you want to create a file that contains a collection of messages, you'll want
an mbox provider for JavaMail. You can find references to several such
providers on the JavaMail Third Party Products download page.
