Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

Convert your emails folders in mailbox format to maildirs. Some of the current features of mb2md.pl are: * converting the user's main mailbox that is referenced by the $MAIL variable * converting a single mailbox into corresponding maildir * converting multiple mailboxes in a directory into corresponding maildirs * recursive operation on a given directory to convert the complete mail storage of one user * replaces all occurrences of dots ('.') in a mailbox name by underscores ('_') * is able to handle spaces in mailbox names * converts mbox files in DOS format (CRLF) to Unix file format * can strip an extension (e.g. ".mbx") from a mailbox name prior to converting * removal of dummy message that a couple of IMAP servers (e.g. UW-IMAPD) put at the beginning of a mailbox * setting the file date of a converted message according to the date found in the "From " line of the original mail * setting the flags F,R,S,T (flagged, replied, seen, deleted) on the filename of the converted message according to the flags found in "Status:"/"X-Status:"/"X-Mozilla-Status:"/"X-Evolution:" headers of the original mail

Mapping provenance

Only source-backed identity signals create public cross-OS links. A reviewer can later approve or dispute an inferred relationship without rewriting native package history.
