Does anyone know of an email program that can import messages via a
csv file? I know most of them can import an address book that way but
I need to be able to import messages. I have them in that format and
can't get them into any other.
thanks,

Exactly how do you "format" a message as a "csv file"?
A CSV file is generally used to represent logical records. This is why you
can represent an address book as a CSV file: an address book contains
logical records, namely the addresses themselves.
A message is not a logical set of records. The headers of a message may be
representable as logical records, perhaps, but the message itself is
freeform text. Which won't exactly fit the definition of a csv file.
So, I don't think it's quite clear exactly what you're trying to do.
Perhaps an example of a message that you claim comes in a csv file would be
useful to look at.

Remember when, on comp.mail.misc,
You put our livers at perilous risk
By spewing silly nonsense all day long?
WELL?
Our livers, still aching from laughing at you,
Every five minutes we have to go to the loo,
Wondering how you could always be so wrong,
AND!
We're laughing at Beavis again, HAHA!
We're laughing at Beavis again, HOHO!
HEE HEE, HA HA!
In the funny farm,
is where Beavis should be, all the time,
Where he won't read this post,
and all those anonymous trolls, HAHA!!
Remember when, you tried to convince
that Challenge/Response is the greatest thing since
they invented the bread slicing machine?
WELL?
You tried to make sense,
But you're always too dense,
And you should only come out in public on Halloween.
AND!
We're laughing at Beavis again, HAHA!
We're laughing at Beavis again, HOHO!
HEE HEE, HA HA!
In the funny farm,

He'll be happy to see
Those nice young men, who pretend to believe,
that his procmail recipes really work, HAHA!!

Also Beavis FAQ #4.

And Beavis FAQ #9.
============================================================ ===============
FAQ: Canonical list of questions Beavis refuses to answer (V1.40)
This is a canonical list of questions that Beavis never answers. This FAQ is
posted on a semi-regular schedule, as circumstances warrant.
For more information on Beavis, see:
http://angel.1jh.com/nanae/kooks/alanconnor.shtml
Although Beavis has been posting for a long time, he always remains silent
on the subjects enumerated below. His response, if any, usually consists of
replying to the parent post with a loud proclamation that his Usenet-reading
software runs a magical filter that automatically identifies anyone who's
making fun of him, and hides those offensive posts. For more information
see question #9 below.
============================================================ ================
1) If spammers avoid forging real E-mail addresses on spam, then where do
all these bounces everyone reports getting (for spam with their return
address was forged onto) come from?
2) If your Challenge-Response filter is so great, why do you still munge
when posting to Usenet?
3) Do you still believe that rsh is the best solution for remote access?
(http://tinyurl.com/5qqb6)
4) What is your evidence that everyone who disagrees with you, and thinks
that you're a moron, is a spammer?
5) How many different individuals do you believe really post to
comp.mail.misc? What is the evidence for your paranoid belief that everyone,
except you, who posts here is some unknown arch-nemesis of yours?
6) How many times, or how often, do you believe is necessary to announce
that you do not read someone's posts? What is your reason for making these
regularly-scheduled proclamations? Who do you believe is so interested in
keeping track of your Usenet-reading habits?
7) When was the last time you saw Bigfoot (http://tinyurl.com/23r3f)?
8) If your C-R system employs a spam filter so that it won't challenge spam,
then why does any of the mail that passes the filter, and is thusly presumed
not to be spam, need to be challenged?
9) You claim that the software you use to read Usenet magically identifies
any post that makes fun of you. In http://tinyurl.com/3swes you explain
that "What I get in my newsreader is a mock post with fake headers and no
body, except for the first parts of the Subject and From headers."
Since your headers indicate that you use slrn and, as far as anyone knows,
the stock slrn doesn't work that way, is this interesting patch to slrn
available for download anywhere?
10) You regularly post alleged logs of your procmail recipe autodeleting a
bunch of irrelevant mail that you've received. Why, and who exactly do you
believe is interested in your mail logs?
11) How exactly do you "enforce" an "order" to stay out of your mailbox,
supposedly (http://tinyurl.com/cs8jt)? Since you issue this "order" about
every week, or so, apparently nobody wants to follow it. What are you going
to do about it?
12) What's with your fascination with shit? (also http://tinyurl.com/cs8jt)?
13) You complain about some arch-nemesis of yours always posting forged
messages in your name. Can you come up with even a single URL, as an example
of what you're talking about?
14) You always complain about some mythical spammers that pretend to be
spamfighters (http://tinyurl.com/br4td). Who exactly are those people, and
can you post a copy of a spam that you supposedly received from them, that
proves that they're really spammers, and not spamfighters?

It is a csv file when that is the only useable format the existing
email program can export the messages as. A lot of the email
programs I looked at can export the messages as a csv file but
so far I have not found one that can import them.
As in "subject","body","sender",....
I can get the messages into the openoffice database program via
several steps so I can search and sort and so on but I would like
to be able to access them via an email program.

Really? What email programs did you look at, that can export in such a
bizarre format -- and how exactly do they fit a (rather) lengthy body into a
single csv field? And what happens if the message body contains both quotes
and commas (which is very likely with most email messages)?
Just for the heck of it, I fired up Thunderbird, and couldn't find any
option to do anything like that.

All email programs I know of will export messages as plain, garden-variety
text. This is the first time I've ever heard of csv format for email.
