3. It is fast.
Unfortunately not for me.
time formail -s tee oneMessageOnly < theBigBox
real 0m24.019s
user 0m3.376s
sys 0m4.484s
As mentioned, my file is huge:
$ wc -l theBigBox
2171183 theBigBox
Well, 24 seconds to process 2 million lines of largely unstructured text is
pretty fast. You could make it faster with a faster disk, of course.
The REAL solution is not to have an mbox file with over 2 million lines.
There is *no* reason to use mbox over maildir. It is inefficient and fragile.

It was sad music. But it waved its sadness like a battle flag. It said
the universe had done all it could, but you were still alive.
