Thanks for your replies
I think I did not explain the problem clearly
I don't have any problem creating one single mailbox file. But after I
start converting them into html from mhonarc I am getting errors like
"Too many files open" or "Bad file number"
After successfully generating " pft_afe2002qt3" I run following command
/usr/bin/mhonarc -add /tmp/pft_afe2002qt3 -rcfile
/usr2/emailweb/mhonarc/rc_main -title pft_afe -ttitle pft_afe -sort
-reverse -treverse -outdir /usr2/emailweb/archives_html/pft_afe/
This is the error Message I am getting
ERROR: Unable to create temp file
"/usr2/emailweb/archives_html/pft_afe//atchbquvgxXYW7": Too many open
files
If I do limit descriptors 1024 ( increasing the open files count ) I am
getting below error
ERROR: Unable to create temp file
"/usr2/emailweb/archives_html/pft_afe//atchbquvgxXYW7": Bad file number
Thanks,
Rangesh

Try using a loop, with bash it looks something like:
for i in $(ls . | grep .txt) ; do
cat $i >> /tmp/mbox
done
