Now here is a very simple question (please don't tell me maildir, scripts dir etc etc, have spent 3+ hrs trawling through website and archives). I have read this discussion thread https://yhetil.org/meta/22947b1d-4728-30fa-ee96-fbd31496c0e6@gmx.at/T/#r8d12a02091311f1d8a7eae01dfaf873415d6b439 I use alpine 2.24 and mbox format works great for me and for the 600GB mail archives without any problems till date. so 'mbox' it is for me. As an example, let's consider this mailing list archive. git clone --mirror http://lore.kernel.org/connman/0 connman/git/0.git Q: How do i convert the mail content trapped in the git repo to mbox format ? Is there a solution ? script ? Any pointers ? warm regards Saifi.
