OT reassemble df qf pair

[Julian Field]

Script attached, just wrote it for you.

Usage: RawSendmailToCompleteMessage qf-name df-name
   Or: RawSendmailToCompleteMessage df-name qf-name
   Or: RawSendmailToCompleteMessage message-queue-id

So basically just chuck it any bits of filenames you have to hand, it 
will work out what you meant.

It outputs the RFC-822 message on standard output, which you will 
probably want to redirect to a file.
Example:

RawSendmailToCompleteMessage g4DDWlR20454 > message.txt
which will process qfg4DDWIR20454 and dfg4DDWIR20454 and put the 
formatted message into "message.txt".

or

RawSendmailToCompleteMessage  *00368 | less
which will process the message whose filenames end in 00368 and show you 
the result with "less".

So hopefully it is as easy to drive as possible.


Script should be attached to this message, gzipped (because that stops 
anything trying to put a signature on the end of the script by mistake. 
These damn email systems.... :-)


It has taken me an hour to get right for you, so a reasonable 
contribution from my Amazon wish list would be much appreciated! (Or 
just cash in Paypal would be fine too :-)

Regards,
Jules.
