Hello


Does somebody know a tool which would allow to convert a (unix) mailbox
or a vm folder to the org-mode format?
Thanks

The power of org is that "it's all text"...  A regex based replace would
do the job if you simply want to make all "^From" lines
headlines.  Depends on what you mean by org-mode format.

In ed/ex/vi format: %s/^From/* From/
(as an evil in emacs user ;-)
