.SH NAME
splitmbox \- split a mailbox into mdir format
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B splitmbox
[
.B -l
]
[
.I mbox
] 
.SH DESCRIPTION
Splitmbox converts a mailbox in mbox format
into
.IR mdir (6)
format.
.I Mbox
is the mailbox to convert.
The default is
.B /mail/box/\f2user\f5/mbox
and the temporary destination is
.BR /mail/box/\f2user\f5/mboxdir .
.PP
After conversion, commands are printed
to remove the old mailbox and replace it
with the new.  These must be executed by
hand to complete the conversion.  The
.B -l
flag executes these commands rather than
printing them.
