For mailing lists I serve, I need to maintain both ezmlm archive
directories as well as mbox files. Working out the archiving to mbox files
was not difficult, but I forgot to do it for one of my lists and now have
about 3 months worth of ezmlm archives that I need to pipe through the
mbox archive script.

All I need to do is add the "From " line to the top of each message. I'd
like it to be an accurate line, not a generic one, so I thought, hey, I
could use preline. Unfortunately I can't figure out how to use preline
outside of the context of qmail. If it's expecting all of the environment
variables listed in the qmail-command man page, then I'm at square one,
because if I spend half a day debugging a script to get those variables
right, writing the "From " line would be cake.

Can someone explain if/how I can use preline as a tool on its own, or
point me to an ezmlm archive2mbox script somewhere? I've looked quite a
bit through docs, FAQs and search engines before posting.

Thanks,

   - Mike
