This looks very useful, thank you. It's a shame the output format can only be mbox (I think), but since I'm using archivemail's default of gzipped-mbox, it's not a big change. -- Jonathan Dowland https://jmtd.net

You could have a look at "dovecot-archiver" for consideration if you want. It is *not* available in the debian repos though. https://pypi.org/project/dovecot-archive/ -- Regards, Didar But you'll notice Perl has a goto. -- Larry Wall in <199710211624.jaa17...@wall.org> Generated by Signify v1.14 (http://www.debian.org/)

See https://bugs.debian.org/936146 for details. Well, I took a quick stab at porting archivemail to python 3. As the bug report mentions, indeed the old rfc822 library doesn't map very well to today's email.message library. However, as the rfc822 in Python 2 is a single small python file, I just grabbed that, and put it, archivemail and test_archivemail through the 2to3 converter. End result, after a couple of minor fixes I had 46/99 tests passing and it seems most of the failures have one of two issues so might be easy to fix. So with this approach this seems doable even with my programming skills. No promises but I'll see if I can find the time and energy to do more.

s/ yet//
Some people have tried, but gave up eventually, therefore the package
has been removed. See https://bugs.debian.org/936146 for details.

Okay. So archivemail hasn't been updated for Python 3 yet.

Hi, not an archivemail user, but just in case it's useful: you can
check the right column bottom section ('Similar packages') on Debian's
archivemail package page to see if there's something relevant there
(and if it's available in newer Debian versions):
https://packages.debian.org/buster/archivemail
Kind regards!

I wonder about that too, I use archivemail to clean up my spam folder of older spam. My email provider still runs Buster and they're in no hurry to upgrade so no problem right now but eventually I'll need a replacement. Oh, for now you could probably install archivemail from Buster.
Substitute for archivemail
Ciao a tutti, I have a little mail server for a few users with dovecot as imap server. To compress the mailboxes of the users I had archivemail. In these days I upgraded the server to bullseye and so I have not yet archivemail: what could I use as subsitute? -- Ciao leandro
