question about archive format

[Erik Myllymaki]

    [ The following text is in the "ISO-8859-1" character set. ]
    [ Your display is set for the "US-ASCII" character set.  ]
    [ Some characters may be displayed incorrectly. ]

What file format are emails in archived by Mailscanner stored in?

Basically I want to use Python to Perl to parse through 6 months worth
and send some to a SQL database. Are they a generic mail file that many
tools can work with?

Thanks
