A friend of my passed away few months ago, but his puter didn't. His family wants to read his e-mails to know what ran through his mind, but the e-mail is saved in Netscape for Linux, and the printer only works in Windows. I triend to setup the printer in Linux, but I gave up any hope after many tries knowing that I did manage setting up the printer in Linux on my own computer. (i do not use linux at this moment, so printing at my home is not an option)
I now try to write a program that generates an RTF-file containing a readable version of all messages in the several e-mail-folders. Somehow, I think I'm doing work that has already been done many times before. If I take a single message to a file, rename the file to *.msg and dblclick, it is opened with Outlook or ~Express. But I want to print all messages at one time. Does anyone know if this is possible?
Here's an example of a mail message in the input i have:
<<
