I have a few HUGE mailbox files (with approx 200 letters in them) which
I would like to dump to ASCII so that I can take them home and archive
them on my Apple II. (yes, that's right, I still use one of /those/!)

The reason I need to do this is because of diskspace.

What I need to know is if anyone out there has wrote a script (or maybe
a Perl program) to take each letter from a NeXT mailbox file and dump
it to a seperate file. (like letter.1, letter.2, letter.3, etc etc)

Thanks,
 Shane Zatezalo
