OK,
I've looked in the mini-faq
I can't access the original at
the moment, but
http://mirror.ncsa.uiuc.edu/procmail-faq/mini-faq.html
works fine
Anyway:
formail -s script < mailfile
Where "script" is a script to receive each
message separately on stdin
and "mailfile" is your mailbox
Thus your script can do whatever it likes
with each message (including putting it
into a file)
Or you can go a bit more complex ...
create a procmail rcfile with rules about
what you want to do with each mail message
(e.g. called procrc)
and then:
formail -s procmail procrc < mailfile
Hope this helps
-Cheers
