In my program I use Net::NNTP module to fetch messages form particular newsgroup and append them to regular text file (it seems to me that they are articles in source form) as I matter of fact I use:
... $art = $nntp->article($msg_num);
if (defined($art)) {
foreach my $l (@$art) {
print OUT $l; }
print OUT "\n";
} ...
I attach example file. Can the file of that format be processed by mhonarc the way mbox file is?
I suppose so. One thing you could try is adding a bogus message separator to each message before appending them to the file:
unshift @$art, "From username\@domain.com Sat Jan 1 00:00:00 2000\n";
That's what I'm doing in the mhastart.pl script when grabbing email messages from a POP account using Net::POP3.
