Thank you for the information ! Yesterday when I scanned the PERL sites, I
used the text in the subject line that I sent to this list. Looking for
"mailbox to maildir conversion script" from your note returned numerous
hits. Though I'm only interested in counting the number of messages, seeing
what the programs parse on is very helpful (I'm looking at mb2md.pl and
perfect_maildir). These two programs seem to parse on the "From ", beginning
at the start of the line.
Thank you for assistance and expertise, it is much appreciated !

Look for a mailbox to maildir conversion script (there are several
free ones, allthough mostly Perl). Both are standard mail storage
formats, but mailbox is with all emails in a file and maildir with an
email per file.
