14 mha-decode is a utility program that is part of the MHonArc software
15 package. mha-decode provides basic MIME decoding for mail messages.
16
17 If given mail folders as input, all messages within in the mail folders
18 will be decoded. All message parts are written to files. If a file‐
19 name is specified for a message part, that filename will be used when
20 writing the part to a file. If no filename is specified in the mes‐
21 sage, a unique name will be used based upon the content-type of the
22 message part.
23
24 A single message can be decoded by using the "-single" option.
25
27 mha-decode takes options available to mhonarc, but only those options
28 affect parsing of mail folders are applicable: "-conlen", "-mhpattern",
29 "-msgsep", "-noconlen", "-outdir", "-perlinc", "-rcfile", "-single",
30 "-umask".
31
32 Also, mha-decode supports the following additional options:
33
34 "-dcd-digest"
35 Run in message digest mode. When this option is specified, any
36 embedded "message/rfc822" and "message/news" parts will be saved
37 instead of recursively decoding any parts contained within.
