NAME

packf − pack messages in mh folder into a single mbox file

SYNOPSIS

packf

[+folder] [msgs] [−Version] [−help]

DESCRIPTION

Packf will pack copies of messages from a folder, into mbox format and print it to the standard output.

packf makes an mbox-style delimiter by examining the first line of the message. If the first line is a ‘Return-Path’ field, its address and the current date and time are used. Otherwise, if the first line has an ‘X-Envelope-From’ field, its contents (which should already be in the correct format) are used. Otherwise, a dummy address and the current date and time are used.

Messages that are packed by packf can be unpacked using inc.
