NAME

       lei-convert - one-time conversion from one mail format to another

SYNOPSIS

       lei convert -o OUTPUT [OPTIONS] LOCATION

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

DESCRIPTION

       Convert messages to another format.  "LOCATION" is a source of messages: a directory (Maildir), a file
       (various mbox), or a URL ("imap://", "imaps://", "nntp://", or "nntps://").  URLs requiring
       authentication use 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:
       "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
       --torsocks=auto|no|yes
