The issue is I do not know if ".mesh" format is a standard or is application specific. I have never seen .mesh as an output type for any applications I have used. I did see some mentions of blender and lightwave.
But the idea is you want to get the .mesh into either .obj or .fbx and then import that into maya.

So import the mesh into blender and export it out of blender in obj and then import the obj to maya?

Maybe this link might help or searching on the Ogre forums might yield some results.

So unless we know what application created the .mesh files then it is going to be hard to come up with something that might convert them.

there is an app called xps from xnalara it's a posing studio that outputs .mesh files, the program functions are terrible to use most people are using blender and 3dmax, but I can't stand blender it's backwards compared to using maya, and I would like to ask for a maya 2015 .mesh importer as well. thanksI think this is making it clear that .mesh is not a standard. It sounds like several apps might have a .mesh output format but I am starting to believe that these are all application specific.
