Good deal, glad you found something that works. I will make a note of that
mb2md.

That is for sure

There are several converters on www.qmail.org  specifically here

 http://qmail.cdsinet.net/top.html#maildir

 I don't know if they keep the same timestamps, but I don't see why not.
 You can always make a test of one.

I found one that works. mb2md  The others I tried don't backdate
the timestamp of the files they are creating.
mb2md is not perfect. it sets the date to when the files was
sent not the time form the last mailserver, but it is better
than 40,000 messages with the approximately the same time.

qmail: mbox to maildir preserving time stamps.

2003-10-04 Thread Micheas Herman
Hi,

I have about 100 mboxes that I need to convert in to maildirs.
I REALLY want the timestamp of the files in the maildir to match the
timestamps inside the emails.

Does anyone have a suggestion?
