# Creates maildirs for everyone in /etc/passwd who receives mail. | |
# Copies all their mail in /var/spool/mail into their maildir. | |
# Assumes that nothing is trying to modify the mailboxes in /var/spool/mail | |
# This assumption could be removed by locking the mailboxes and deleting | |
# the mail after moving it. | |
# version 0.00 - first release to the public. | |

# Modified from original script by Richard Welty <rwelty@averillpark.net> | |
# uses safecat and after conversion examines individual files for | |
# UW-IMAP Status: flags, renaming files and moving them as appropriate | |
# to preserve Read/Unread and Answered status | |
