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.
