I wrote some scripts for archiving Eudora e-mail which more or less does
this. If anyone would like to play with them drop me an e-mail. There is
also a script which extracts a summary from the archive file: sender's
e-mail address and subject line. (They were written in MacPerl 4.1.8, but
run on 5.1.0)

In self-defence they were written early on the 'perl learning curve', so
it's pretty horrible perl...
