NAME
       b2m - convert old Emacs Rmail Babyl format to mbox format

SYNOPSIS
       b2m < babyl-file > mbox-file

DESCRIPTION
       b2m  accepts  Babyl  format mail (as used by older versions of Rmail in
       GNU Emacs) on standard input, and converts it to mbox format  on	 stan‐
       dard output.  Babyl was the storage format used by Rmail prior to Emacs
       23.1.  Since then, it uses standard mbox format.	 This program is  dis‐
       tributed with GNU Emacs.

OPTIONS
       The program accepts unambiguous abbreviations for long option names.

SEE ALSO
       The  Babyl  format is described in the file etc/BABYL in the Emacs dis‐
       tribution.  Rmail is documented in the GNU  Emacs  manual,  which   you
       can  read  using Info, either from Emacs or as a standalone program.
