/var/spool/mail/<user> and dxmail renumber

During whine2k upgrades I had one users system idle, then cold for about 3
weeks and gave him a new, freshly built, system. When he started using the
new system he noticed a large gap in the dates his mail. I know where all
the mail is and will move it from the old disk to the new system.

The real question is will the 'renumber' in dxmail actually re-sequence mail
chronologically or will it just tack these new messages into the inbox after
the most recent and remove only any gaps in numbers?

If the later, is there a tool that will sort them back chronologically
again?

thanks
