mboxgrep - Small mailbox searching utility

mboxgrep is a small, non-interactive utility that scans mail folders for messages matching regular expressions. It supports basic and extended POSIX, as well as Perl-compatible regular expressions. Selected messages can be either displayed on standard output, counted, deleted, piped to a specified command, or copied to another mailbox. It can read and write mbox (both plain and compressed), MH, nnml, nnmh and maildir folders. Additionally, it can read mbox folders or output of another mboxgrep process from standard input.
