Hi,
my MTA is qmail, so every e-mail message is one file ... I have some thousends of e-mails in gentoo-user directory.
If searching for something grep is still the best choice, but it's not very comfortable to follow the tread.
So a tool, which makes from all messages in one thread one multipart message would be super... because a lot of space on disk will be saved as well (one average message occupy less then 1/2 of block).
Does anyone know about such tool ?
Thanks,

One or both of those should fit your needs.

Thanks, but ...
1. in description of both packages only mailbox is mentioned, so it'll be hardly usable for maildirs (not checked, even needed, because searching I solved by simple bash script long ago :-) )
2. some "mailgrep" will probable not solve the problem with amoungth of files and occupied size ... that's the priority!
3. it seems I have to write something myself :-(
