       mha-dbrecover - rebuild a MHonArc archive database

Options

mha-dbrecover takes all the options available to mhonarc along with the following additional options:

       "-dbr-startnum" #
           The  starting  message  number  to recover data from.  This option is useful if you have many message
           files in a directory, but you only want to recover a subset of the files.

           If this option is not specified, the starting number is 0.

       "-dbr-endnum" #
           The ending message number to recover data from.  This option is useful if you have many message files
           in a directory, but you only want to recover a subset of the files.

           If this option is not specified, all messages starting from "-dbr-startnum" will be recovered.

       NOTE: Only a subset of the options available to mhonarc are actually supported since many options are not
       applicable for recovering operations.
