NAME

       packf - pack messages in mh folder into a single mbox file

SYNOPSIS

       packf [+folder] [msgs] [-Version] [-help]

DESCRIPTION

       Packf  will  pack  copies  of messages from a folder, into mbox format and print it to the
       standard output.

       packf makes an mbox-style delimiter by examining the first line of the  message.   If  the
       first  line  is a `Return-Path' field, its address and the current date and time are used.
       Otherwise, if the first line has an `X-Envelope-From' field, its  contents  (which  should
       already  be  in  the correct format) are used.  Otherwise, a dummy address and the current
       date and time are used.

       Messages that are packed by packf can be unpacked using inc.
