Well, I tested with 'formail'; but I seemed to find that, it only works with
a single message; doesn't it? What I would like is that, my mail box
(/var/spool/mail/david), which may contain many mails, is dumped into
different files, one file for each mail.
Any more ideas of how it is done?


Thanks again,
Vidol
