LEI-CONVERT(1)

NAME

lei-convert - one-time conversion from URL or filesystem to another format

SYNOPSIS

lei convert [OPTIONS] LOCATION

lei convert [OPTIONS] (--stdin|-)

DESCRIPTION

Convert messages to another format. "LOCATION" is a source of messages: a directory (Maildir), a file, or a URL ("imap://", "imaps://", "nntp://", or "nntps://"). URLs requiring authentication must use netrc(5) and/or git-credential(1) to fill in the username and password.

For a regular file, the location must have a "<format>:" prefix specifying one of the following formats: "eml", "mboxrd", "mboxcl2", "mboxcl", or "mboxo".

OPTIONS

-F MAIL_FORMAT
--in-format=MAIL_FORMAT: Message input format. Unless messages are given on stdin, using a format prefix with "LOCATION" is preferred.

The following options are also supported and are described in lei-q(1).

-o MFOLDER, --output=MFOLDER
--lock METHOD
--no-kw
--no-import-remote
--torsocks=auto|no|yes
--no-torsocks
