NAME

hypetombox - convert a hypermail archive to an mbox file  

SYNOPSIS

hypetombox [-a] [-R] [-H headers] [-d directory] [-m outfile] [-n address] [-S suffix]  

DESCRIPTION

hypetombox converts a hypermail(1) archive back into a file in mbox format by scanning the current directory (or the one specified with -d) for hypermail-generated files and restoring the original rfc822 headers.

The following options may be used to control its behaviour:

-a
do not truncate the output file if it already exists (i.e. append to it)
-R
strip trailing carriage returns from each line (\r, ascii 13)
-d directory
read hypermail archive from directory/ instead of the current location
-m outfile
write to outfile instead of ./mbox
-S suffix
modify the input file pattern "[0-9]{4}.suffix" (default value for suffix is html)
-n address
specify To:-address of generated mails
-H headers
add additional header lines to each mail (these are copied verbatim; if you want to add more than one, separate them with the character string '%0A')
