[comp.mail.sendmail] automatic digestification software

fagin@eleazar.dartmouth.edu (Barry S. Fagin) (06/29/90)

Is there any software out there that takes a collection of
mail messages and formats them according to RFC934, the
standard for message encapsulation?  Software that automatically
creates headers for digests would also be of interest.

Thanks.

RFC 934 digests are easy to produce.  sed(1) can convert a
UNIX-style mailbox to a RFC 934 digest:

sed -e '/^$/{' -e 'n' -e 's/^From .*$/-----/' -e '}' \
    -e '1s/^From .*$/-----/' -e 't' -e 's/^-/- -/'
