Well I had just installed mhonarc to turn a mailling list archive into
html, and didn't know how to make the
process automagic.
I never wrote a shell script from scratch before, and came up with this
after a brief search on Google for commands.
It does work, but Im just looking for critical comments to the script,
to see if I can improve on it..
If not, its in the archive for others to use it.
Thanks
