Tools how to find pine messages

still touching on the basics here:

first of all where are my received messages stored in pine?

/var/spool/mymail

is not it.

i guess i cant start my script without knowing this. because i need to move those files into a seperate folder and so on and so forth.

I can prolly do a grep or egrep to identify messages from a certain person. Like grep "^From: Bill Gates | nl" and then ofcouse putting the new lines back.

But after countless attempts its still not working. Experiencing program hang from executing the script.


Hints are apprecaited

NAME
acinclude - manual page for ac-archive 0.5.39 SYNOPSIS
acinclude [OPTIONS] ... DESCRIPTION
Generate `acinclude.m4' by scanning `configure.ac' or `configure.in' --acdir=DIR directory holding subdirectories with config files --help print this help, then exit -I DIR add directory to superdir search list for .m4 files . add current directory as superdir to searchlist which is the default if no -I option was given. --output=FILE put output in FILE (default acinclude.m4) --print-ac-dir print name of directory with subdirs holding m4 files --verbose don't be silent --version print version number, then exit Note that unlike aclocal the subdirectories (!!) of the acdir-path are searched for files - the default will find locals as ./*/*.m4 and always search for ac-macros installed as share/aclocal/*/*.m4 which may include the macros from ac-archive or from packages that chose to install multiple files into a subdirectory of share/aclocal. The tool will warn at unresolved symbols starting with AX_ just as the original aclocal program did warn at unresolved macros with AC_. AUTHOR
