IIRC, netscape stores its folders in mbox format (all mails in one file seperated by newlines, each mail starts with a from_ line) and it keeps an extra file for additional data. Find the mbox file, pine should be able to read it without conversion.

Not until you compact folders (or whatever that command is) does it update the actual mail files themselves. This is the main reason why netscape doesn't play well with procmail/formail etc.. st> Ciao, st> Stefan st> st> -- S.Toms - tomas@primenet.com - www.primenet.com/~tomas SuSE Linux v6.3+ - Kernel 2.2.14 -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
