| you're looking for "mairix". i install it via debian/ubuntu package, | but google will find you the sources quickly. it's fantastic. It is available in pkgsrc too (from NetBSD, though it also runs on lots of other systems) so I thought I would give it a try. Easy to build and install, not difficult to configure, but after that, a bit of a nightmare... While it supposedly understands mh format, it doesn't understand mh drafts (with the ----- separator between header and body, rather than the blank line) and complains about all of those. It also complains about stuff it shouldn't really be looking at at all, if I read its doc correctly, like (non text attachmants encoded in formats it doesn't understand, like x-uuencode ... I have lots of very very old messages - my mh directory dwarfs the one mentioned in the question) and has not real idea (it seems) what to do with filenames for attachments which are not ascii (or something, I have lots of those as well.) But the killer is that eventually the indexing operation simply dumped core. kre -- nmh-workers https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
