Right. I knew that. I was just looking for a way to do it without
compiling it in as the "default" format. Tho, I'm not sure there's
a problem with doing that.
It's messier than that; there are some security issues as well. The -I
flag in tmail could be abused for some truly nasty purposes if it was
allowed for non-privileged calls.
Right. But if there were a "format" command-line arg that doesn't
also specify the filename, that issue goes away. That was my point
for having a format arg that wasn't -I.
"mailutil create #driver.mbx/foo" will create an empty file named foo
which you can then copy to "INBOX" in the home directory of all the
users you want to convert to mbx.
Cool. Thanks... I need to look at mailutil s'more. I've looked
at mbx* tools, but they're confusing. Maybe I shouldn't be looking
at those. :-)
By the way, you do know that you can't use mbx format with NFS, don't you?
Yup. I'm all on local filesystems here.
