Well,
I want to split my mail folder into pieces.
Let's say, my mail folder has five messages in it. I would like to split the
folder into 5 different files, each containing one message respectively.
Each file should be plain-text and we can copy over to a disk and read in
any text editor.
My purpose of doing this is that, our customers sometimes cannot connect to
our mail server from their places. I would like to do the spliting so that
they put each mail file into their floppy disks and have it read in any text
editor.
Perhaps, I should write my own PERL script to do so, as you said, Michael.
I'm here just to ask if someone has a better alternative.
Thanks and regards,
Vidol
