There's also the "formmail" tool from the procmail package. That's probably more robust than the awk script you mention, takes up less memory, is faster, etc.... Of course, it also requires that you download and install at least that part of procmail, so it requires more work. > 7. Run bin/arch on all the chunks one at a time. Yeah, you want to run that tool on the chunks in order, otherwise I think that the message number generation scheme will at least get ugly, if not confused. -- Brad Knowles, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trend Micro has announced that they will cancel the stop.mail-abuse.org mail forwarding service as of 15 November 2006.
