As employees leave the company, we currently put their message store on one or more CDs. I would prefer to place an HTML structured / browseable copy on the CDs.
I installed mhonarc and am having difficutly getting the marilarchive built. It seems that the program is not parsing the messages properly and I'm not sure what I need to do to adjust the program. I am also not sure that I am dealing with nested folders properly.
---------------------------
The first thing I tried:
---------------------------
#mhonarc /path/to/users/maildirectory
This is MHonArc v2.6.6, Perl 5.006 darwin
Converting messages to .
Reading /path/to/users/maildirectory .
Warning: Could not parse date for message
Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
.
Warning: Could not parse date for message
Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
.
Warning: Could not parse date for message
Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Writing mail ... Writing ./maillist.html ... Writing ./threads.html ... Writing database ... 3 new messages 3 total messages
---I think the 3 files that it errored on were the iPlanet indes files.
---------------------------
The second attempt
---------------------------
#mhonarc -mhpattern "^[^.]" /path/to/users/maildirectory
This is MHonArc v2.6.6, Perl 5.006 darwin
Converting messages to .
Reading /path/to/users/maildirectory .
Warning: Could not parse date for message
Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
.
Warning: Could not parse date for message
Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
.

....
Error repeated many times.
It created 22 files, there are 100s.The message server is iPlanet Message Server 5.0 and the mail is stored as individual mail files in a hashed directory structure. I'll give some examples of the data:

Inside each named folder are more hashed directories like the first 3 above, and messages inside each.
