How can I read the Netscape's Mail Files?

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question: ⭐ (database programming)

I'm trying to make a consistent archive of all my mail, but since some of it is in Netscape's files, I'm having a hard time figuring how they work.

Anyone has alreay done this or has clues for me?

Thanks in advance.
Michele

Netscape uses standar MBox format. Have a look at the Mail::Box::Mbox module. Of cource, it doesn't deal with netscape's summary files, but netscape will happily update those for you. goldclaw	[reply]

I ran my Inbox through Mhonarc so I could access it via the web. Mhonarc gives you lots of formatting options as well. For specifics on using it with Netscape mail accounts list this page	[reply]
