- -r option does not do anything (it should remove an extension while
creating maldir name).
If you use such directory/mailbox structure :
[EMAIL PROTECTED]: test]$ ls -alR /tmp/test/Mail
/tmp/test/Mail:
total 24
drwxr-xr-x 3 bast bast 4096 2005-10-11 19:28 .

- -rw-r--r-- 1 bast bast 9886 2005-10-11 19:33 Local.sbd
and convert it
[EMAIL PROTECTED]: test]$ /usr/bin/mb2md -s /tmp/test/Mail/ -R -d
/tmp/test/Maildir -r sbd
convertit(.,"")

Looking at mb2md code, while creating maildir name, mb2md first
replaces all . with _, and then it tries to remove pattern \.$strip_ext$
from this name. As no dot is found, this pattern never matches.
Attached quick patch make -r option works, but it may not be the best
solution. ^_^
thanks.
