<Maildir>
    Root of the Maildir to split. This directory should contain the cur, tmp and new subdirectories.

    Directory in which to place the individual messages.

-b
    If any file doesn(cqt begin with a From line, assume it is a single mail message instead of signaling error.

    Instead of the default 4 digits with leading zeros, different precision can be specified for the generated filenames.

-f<nn>
    Skip the first <nn> numbers, for example if -f3 is specified, start the numbering with 0004.

--keep-cr
