files to something useful? I researched this subject on Google and, while
there is a fair amount of information and even some scripts for converting
this Pipermail gzipped format to mbox format, it doesn't match up with what
I actually find in the download files from this list, whether in the
original gz format or after uncompressing. For example, the scripts expect
to find "From:" literals in clear text, and that is not the case in these
files.
Hi Gary,
I think that's a question for the pipermail users list.
Note that you can use
http://xwiki.markmail.org/ or
http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/ to browse the archives, and they have
good UI and good search capabilities, especially markmail.
