Hi, You probably know the scenario - not having MH, or other decent mail handler, I used RMAIL in emacs up to the point of having very very large mailbox files (even with constant refiling I can't seem to keep pace). Now, suddenly (for various reasons), mh becomes available. Joy! Every message in its own file! But wait, how to get these pesky babyl format files converted into something I can get then 'inc'? Hmmmm! I figure asking for something that converts Babyl files into multiple files, mh style, would be too much to ask for but what the heck, that would also do just as well (or even better). Any pointers? Please help a desperate man who is otherwise contemplating perl.. (shudder).
