mexport — export messages as mbox file
Contents
Description
mexport writes the specified msgs to the standard output as an MBOXRD file. (See mmsg(7) for the message
argument syntax.)
If no msgs are specified, mexport reads filenames from the standard input, or uses the messages in the
current sequence if used interactively.
mexport uses the ‘Return-Path:’ (or ‘X-Envelope-To:’) and ‘Date:’ headers from each message for the mbox
‘From ’ line.
The options are as follows:
-S Add ‘Status:’ and ‘X-Status:’ headers according to the msgs maildir flags.
Exit Status
The mexport utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
