Lowell,
I have installed metamail and tried it on a few email bundles. It
certainly gets the unpacking done.
Have you ever used it in a scripted process? I cannot figure out a way to
get metamail to quietly unbundle the email into a directory which I have
designated for this particular email. metamail wants to prompt for file
names. And when I try to override this with the -x switch it simply
writes the files to /tmp/.
I can't see any way to customise this behaviour...
