I intentionally did say mailbox format, meaning a general term as in messagebase format, not mbox. I in fact favour Maildir over mbox, as I mentioned I'll thus be moving my Microdot message base towards Maildir. > I have a mail export > option on my todo list. A Maildir export shouldn't be too difficult either, the files themselves could be simply copied and renamed accordingly also preserving their flags (Maildir stores some flags in the filename). > If you're really motivated it's still possible to > write a script that generates a mbox file by recursing the message storage > directory. As I described, I am motivated, but won't need to do much scripting. I already wrote the scripts to extract all messages of some type (i this case all mails) from Microdot's message base back then when it was corrupted the first time. And maildrop will take care of sorting those into Maildirs. elmar -- 3.1 // <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ICQ: 13799187 Public PGP key available via pgp.net // A4000T 68060-50 & 604e-233, 2+144MB, 12GB, SyJet 1.5GB, Cybervision64/3D, \\// Member of Team *AMIGA* Crack RC5 now!
