[General] Linux CLI Tip for Thunderbird

[Burhan Khalid]

If, for some reason your Thunderbird message index becomes corrupt, or
you are simply trying to view message archives on a machine where
Thunderbird is not available (for example, over a headless
connection), then you can use mutt to read the Thunderbird mail store.

The command is:

mutt -R -f Inbox (for the Inbox, obviously). I tried this on a hefty
inbox (1.5GB) and it worked splendidly.

-R = "Read Only"
-f = forces reading of a file instead of a mail directory

Found this useful so thought I would pass it along.
