mailarch-1.4: archive MH mail
#1366
Author: Bill Wohler
Date: Sat, 23 Jan 1993 19:03
769 lines

  this is mailarch 1.4, a program to archive MH mail.

  it tars and compresses mh directories for substantial disk savings
  (inodes too).  for example:

	[wohler@is0001:510]% du -s 1992/mar 1992/mar.tar.Z
	6528    1992/mar
	1360    1992/mar.tar.Z

  the idea of mailarch is to move certain folders into an archive area
  monthly.  older archives are tarred and compressed.

  the programs seek and extract (enclosed) are used to extract
  messages from the archive.

  please read the headers of the scripts for more information.  if you
  use these, let me know and i'll place you on my mailing list.  if
  you find the documentation in the headers non-illuminating, i want
  to know about it.

  note: mailarch is a csh script and seek and extract are ksh scripts.
  the PATH in these scripts may have to be updated for your environment.
  known to work on aix and hpux.

  changes in mailarch since 1.3:
  * Updated documentation for MH 6.8.
  * Works on hpux.
  * Extract's default output folder now +hold (instead on +hold$$).
  * Bug fixes.

  changes in mailarch since 1.2:
  * Create replacement folders with desired permissions.  (Major new
    feature in the user interface.)
  * Use mhparam to get .mh_profile components.
  * Updated documentation.
  * Check to ensure that a folder exists before processing.  On some errors,
    either mailarch would hang, or bogus folders would get created.

X# NAME
X#   extract - extract mail messages from archives
X#
X# SYNOPSIS
X#   extract [-c new-folder] year folder [msg ...]
X#
X# DESCRIPTION
X#   In the case that no specific messages are designated, extract will extract
X#   all messages in the year in the specified folder.  The folder in this case
X#   is relative to the mail directory (ie +a/others).
X#
X#   If specific messages are specified, then only those messages are
X#   extracted.	In this case, the folder specified must also include the year
X#   and month (ie. +1991/jan/a/others).	 The message list "all" is also
X#   supported and extracts all messages from the folder.
X#
X#   The year argument is essentially an archive directory in the Mail
X#   directory.  This program assumes that this archive contains the
X#   subdirectories "jan," "feb," etc. as created by the mailarch program.
X#
X# OPTIONS
X#   -c new-folder  specify the folder to hold the extracted messages
X#		   (default: +hold).
X#
X# RETURNS
X#   0 normally; 1 upon error.
X#
X# BUGS
X#   In pre-MH-6.8 versions that lack the mhparam command, use the
X#   commented out setting of the "mail" variable below.

X# NAME
X#   mailarch - archive MH mail folders
X#
X# SYNOPSIS
X#   mailarch [-a folders] [-f folders] [-m mail] [options] [-s] [-v]
X#	     thismonth [lastmonth]
X#
X# DESCRIPTION
X#   After a period of time one's mail folders get quite full with
X#   material that is rarely looked at.  This program is an attempt to
X#   organize old mail.  The idea is that selected folders are moved
X#   into a different place, usually at monthly intervals.  The first
X#   time, the folder hierarchy is preserved.  The second time this
X#   program is called, a month later, the old hierarchy is packed
X#   (currently with tar) and compressed.  The mail itself can then be
X#   easily stored on tape and the index saved on disk for searching
X#   for old mail.
X#
X#   Usage is straightforward.  First create the MH profile components
X#   "Archive" and "Parent-Folders" described below.  If one is
X#   archiving mail from March, 1991, then the usage would be:
X#
X#	mailarch 1991/mar 1991/feb
X#
X#   This will move selected folders in your mail directory to the
X#   folder 1991/mar.  This name is arbitrary and any intermediary
X#   directories will be automatically created.  But, since it is a
X#   folder, it will be created relative to your mail directory.
X#
X#   This archived folder is then rid of .mh_sequences files and
X#   folders are sorted.  An index of all the messages is also created.
X#   An opportunity to edit or remove large, unwanted files is also
X#   given. The older folder is packed (currently with tar) into a single
X#   file and removed.  The packed folder and its index are then
X#   compressed.
X#
X#   Only parts of this process can be run by using the -o flags.
X#
X#   The names of the folders to be archived are found in the MH profile
X#   "Archive"; names are separated by whitespace.
X#
X#   Pre-MH 6.7.1 versions could not create arbitrarily nested folders, so if
X#   folders that contain subfolders are archived, then it is necessary to
X#   recreate folder trees for them.  This MH profile is called
X#   "Parent-Folders".  Folders listed may be suffixed by ":mode" in order to
X#   override the default folder creation mode.  This "mode" is as in the
X#   chmod(1) command (ie. can be either absolute or symbolic).  For example:
X#
X#	Archive: maillists friends out
X#	Parent-Folders: maillists friends:700 out:700
X#
X#   This archives and recreates the "maillists", "friends", and "out" folders.
X#   The friends and out folders are not accessible by members of the group or
X#   others since they may contain sensitive mails.
X#
X# OPTIONS
X#   -a folders
X#	Override the MH profile value of "Archive" with "folders."
X#	Surround multiple folders with double quotes.
X#
X#   -f folders
X#	Override the MH profile value of "Parent-Folders" with "folders."
X#	Surround multiple folders with double quotes.
X#
X#   -m mail
X#	Set the name of the mail directory.  The default is the value
X#	of the MH profile entry "Path."
X#
X#   -s size
X#	Specify the size of file (in K) that should be edited or
X#	removed (default is 25K).
X#
X#   -v
X#	Display each of the steps.
X#
X#   By default, all of the following actions are performed in the
X#   order listed.  If any of these options are specified, then no
X#   other actions will be performed that are not also listed.
X#
X#   -om
X#	Move the current folders into the new archive.
X#   -os
X#	Sort messages of the new archive.
X#   -oi
X#	Make an index of the new archive.
X#   -op
X#	Pack and compress the old archive.
X#
X# ENVIRONMENT
X#   MH			If set, used instead of ~/.mh_profile.
X#
X# PROFILE COMPONENTS
X#   Path		mail directory (must be relative to home directory).
X#   Archive		folders to archive
X#   Parent-Folders	folders to recreate
X#
X# BUGS
X#   If your MH is pre-MH-6.8, uncomment the non-"mhparam" versions of setting
X#   variables below.
X#
X#   I have to investigate whether or not files might be accidently
X#   removed if you run out of disk space while packing files.
X#
X#   Various scan and sortm messages are displayed (ie. "no messages in folder")
X#   These should be suppressed.
X#
X#   The archive folder name should be able to created automatically so that
X#   this script can be cronned!  An idea would be to say that if it is after
X#   the 15th of month B and before the 15th of month C, then the current month
X#   is month B and last month is month A.
