[Air-l] email extraction program

[Rhiannon Bury]

Hi all:

Does anyone have a suggestion for a program that turns email messages (I 
use Netscape 7) into text files?  I tried mail2txt but it included all 
the hidden html codes, which means I'll still have to strip each one 
individually. I'm trying to find the most painless way to get 4 months 
of listserv messages into text files so I can import them into QSR N6 
for analysis! I was led to believe that this latest version of NUD*IST 
had a utility to do this itself ("swift data import"). But no! All 
documents must be text files, which was the case when I used it last a 
few versions back. Grrrr.
