DESCRIPTION

14       Splits a mbox file or a Maildir into a list of files: "0001" "0002" ..
15       in the specified directory so you can process them further from there.
16
17           Important
18           Maildir splitting relies upon filenames being sorted to output
19           patches in the correct order.

OPTIONS

22       <mbox>
23           Mbox file to split. If not given, the mbox is read from the
24           standard input.
25
26       <Maildir>
27           Root of the Maildir to split. This directory should contain the
28           cur, tmp and new subdirectories.
29
30       -o<directory>
31           Directory in which to place the individual messages.
32
33       -b
34           If any file doesn’t begin with a From line, assume it is a single
35           mail message instead of signaling error.
36
37       -d<prec>
38           Instead of the default 4 digits with leading zeros, different
39           precision can be specified for the generated filenames.
40
41       -f<nn>
42           Skip the first <nn> numbers, for example if -f3 is specified, start
43           the numbering with 0004.
44
45       --keep-cr
46           Do not remove \r from lines ending with \r\n.
47
48       --mboxrd
49           Input is of the "mboxrd" format and "^>+From " line escaping is
50           reversed.
