Subject: Export the entire ~/Mail tree step by step to mbox
Date: 14 May 2000 11:46:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <upkzoptxy57.fsf@amadeus.waldherr.org> (raw)


Hi,

I would like to export (respool, output, save, or whatever) my entire ~/Mail
tree to a new tree in mbox format. That means, the directory ~/Mail/foo
becomes the mbox file ~/newMail/foo, and so forth.

I grepped thru gnus' manual but only found a manual way of exporting an
article `Output|Save in Unix mail format'.

An easy way (for me as a lisp novice) to export the articles is to write a
shell script, but what are the nitty gritty details of mbox? Or does gnus
provide a way?

Any help appreciated,
Stefan.
