Thank you. Read further in my message. I was trying to convert from MBX format via mailutil.
mailutil isn't recognzing the "MBX mail folder":
[root@volt Resume's]# file "Sys Admin" Sys Admin: MBX mail folder [root@volt Resume's]# mailutil copy ./"Sys Admin" '#driver.unix/new' Can't open mailbox ./Sys Admin: no such mailbox
I've copied the MBX mail folder to a name without spaces, and also copied it to a different directory and changed the modes, but still get the same error message.
Any assistance appreciated because this has been a huge headache for a number of people.
mailutil seems to always look for the folder starting from the home directory no matter what path you give it on the command line.
This is how I convert MBX folders:
create a directory uw under the home directory:
cd
mkdir -m 700 uw
copy the mbx folders into that directory
convert with mailutil like this:
mailutil copy -verbose uw/$in \#driver.unix/uw/$out
