Hi list. I've found archives of freebsd-questions mailinglist very useful. But I have found them difficult to search, as in one month there can be many archives, not just one per month. So I would like to merge all archives of the same month into a single mailbox containing all messages sent that month (I am aware this file could come quite large). I have a feeling this can be a simple shellscript/one-liner with some awk magic, but I am having hard time figuring out how to tackle the problem. I should somehow be able to compare a list of files which match the month, and cat >> results to a file whose filename comes that matched months last 2 digits of year+ 2 digits of month. And this for all the files in a directory containing, say, archives from 1998 -> 2005. Easy?
