NAME
mha-dbrecover - rebuild a MHonArc archive database
SYNOPSIS
mha-dbrecover [options]
DESCRIPTION
mha-dbrecover is a

package. The program allows can be used to rebuild a MHonArc
archive database from the HTML message
files. This allows database recovery if the database gets corrupted
or accidentally deleted.
The documentation for MHonArc is distributed in
HTML format. Due to its size and
organization, it is not suited for manpage format. Consult your
system administrator for where the documentation has been
installed, or see ``AVAILABILITY'' on where
you can access the documentation on the web.
OPTIONS
mha-dbrecover takes all
the options available to mhonarc along with the following
additional options:
- -dbr-startnum #
- The starting message number to recover
data from. This option is useful if you have many message files in
a directory, but you only want to recover a subset of the
files.
If this option is not specified, the starting number is
0.
- -dbr-endnum #
- The ending message number to recover
data from. This option is useful if you have many message files in
a directory, but you only want to recover a subset of the
files.
If this option is not specified, all messages starting
from "-dbr-startnum" will be recovered.
NOTE: Only a subset of the options
available to mhonarc are actually supported since many
options are not applicable for recovering operations.
