cvmail -- Command
Convert mail from COHERENT 3.X format to SV format
cvmail [-m filename] [filename]
The command cvmail converts to System V format existing COHERENT 3.X
mailboxes and files used to store messages saved by COHERENT's 3.X mail
utility.
To convert a default mailbox (i.e., a mailbox in directory
/usr/spool/mail), invoke cvmail with its -m option, followed by the name of
the user whose mailbox is to be converted. For example, to convert the
mailbox belonging to user bob, type:
cvmail -m bob
If you have saved mail messages into a file, invoke cvmail with the name of
the file to convert. For example, if you have stored mail messages in file
msg.save, you can convert this file by typing:
cvmail msg.save

Notes
If you invoke cvmail without any arguments, it prompts you for the name of
a file to convert. The file is not assumed to be a mailbox in directory
/usr/spool/mail.
