[ALUG] Extracting from mbox files

[Mark Rogers]

I need to extract some emails from a 600MB .mbox file, which is >99% 
spam. Its a dspam quarantine box that's gone unpruned and now has some 
emails I need to remove from the quarantine, and the whole mbox file can 
be deleted afterwards.

Any suggestions? This is on a server to which I have SSH root access, so 
pretty much any non-GUI tools are open to me.

I have tools that will handle it in principle, just not now its that 
size (eg the dpsam web UI tools would be OK if I could just remove 
everything older than the last couple of weeks first). So an mbox 
pruning tool would be fine too.
