-
- mbox Extractor is a small MUI-utility to extract an UNIX mbox files into
- the Yam's mail files.
-
- WHY TO USE IT ?
- -----------------
- If You're using the Internet with a modem, the transmission slows down
- often (in Poland :) And when You're getting Your mail using YAM, it's not
- too fast. Once I had no time and I decided to connect my server via FTP
- (entering my username and password, the same as my mail ones). In my home
- directory there was a file called "mbox". It contains all the incoming
- e-mails. I could open it using CED and save every mail separately, of course,
- but there were about 80 mails, so that wouldn't be fun... So, I decided to
- write the proggy. As You run it, You have to choose where the mbox file is
- and click "Extract!". Easy? Not so much. Then, You have to run DOpus, go
- into YAM:Incoming directory and mark all files beginning with "new.". Now,
- check the other files' names. It should begin with "08288." or a number
- like that. Now, as you have marked the naw files, click "rename". In
- "Rename" string, write "new.*" and in "As" string, write "[number].*". The
- [number] is a simmilar number to "08288" (or sth. You have), but NOT the same.
- For example, I have "08288.017", "08288.026", "08290.020" and "08292.051"
- files, so I choose something between like "08289". It'll be easier for you
- to undestand if I learn English better ;)
- In the next versions, I'm going to add a string gadget where you canenter
- the number, and maybe the program will recognise the number automacitaly?
- And one more thing, I'm looking for a person who learns me localising my
- programs. I have a little problem, so help me.
