NAME¶
splitmail++ - split mailbox files prior to indexing
SYNOPSIS¶
splitmail++ -pprefix [ file ]
DESCRIPTION¶
splitmail++ is a utility to split a mailbox file (or standard input)
comprised of multiple messages into multiple files of individual messages to
facilitate indexing with index++(1). The generated files have 5-digit
increasing numbers appended to a common prefix. If the mailbox file has some
non-mail header, then this is dumped to a file with the same prefix and
_junk_header as the suffix.
OPTIONS¶
- -pprefix
- Specifies the common prefix.
EXAMPLE¶
The command:
splitmail++ -p msg sent_messages
splits the mailbox sent_messages into
files named msg.00001,
msg.00002, and so on. Any non-mail header gets
dumped to a file named msg_junk_header.
NOTE¶
This utility hasn't been exhaustively tested.
