If you can guarantee that there is no new email is received to the old
mailboxes (no locking is done here), you can use the following:
#################START
#!/bin/sh
cd /var/spool/mail
for i in `ls`
do
echo "Processing mailbox of: "
echo "\n"
echo $i
cat $i | tail -n +12 |formail -s /bin/mail $[EMAIL PROTECTED]
done
#################END
the "tail -n +12" part is to cut the sh#$% that WU programs
(IMAP/pine/etc.) put at the start of each mailbox.
