mha-decode - Decode MIME messages
mha-decode [options] mailfolder ...
mha-decode [options] -single msg.822
mha-decode is a utility program that is part of the MHonArc software package. mha-decode provides basic MIME decoding for mail messages.
If given mail folders as input, all messages within in the mail folders will be decoded. All message parts are written to files. If a filename is specified for a message part, that filename will be used when writing the part to a file. If no filename is specified in the message, a unique name will be used based upon the content-type of the message part.
A single message can be decoded by using the -single option.
mha-decode takes options available to mhonarc, but only those options affect parsing of mail folders are applicable: -conlen, -mhpattern, -msgsep, -noconlen, -outdir, -perlinc, -rcfile, -single, -umask.
Also, mha-decode supports the following additional options:
-dcd-digest-
Run in message digest mode. When this option is specified, any embedded
message/rfc822andmessage/newsparts will be saved instead of recursively decoding any parts contained within.
