Convert an Apple emlx file to a .eml file (removing the Apple-proprietary parts; leaving a raw message file)

convert-emlx.py

import sys

for i in sys.argv[1:]:
	if i.lower().endswith('emlx'):
		print 'Processing:', i
	else:
		print 'Unknown file:', i
		sys.exit(1)

	emlx = open(i, 'r')
	elen = int(emlx.readline().rstrip())
	email = emlx.read(elen)
	emlx.close()

	neweml = open(i + '.eml', 'w')
	neweml.write(email)
	neweml.close()

Nice, ty
