                     19: The mail filters
                     20: are a set of programs that filter mail from one format to another.
                     21: In particular, \fIUUCP\fR\- and \fIMMDF\fR\-style mail files are handled.
                     22: 
                     23: \fImuinc\fR
                     24: filters mail from the user's \fIMMDF\fR maildrop into the user's \fIUUCP\fR
                     25: maildrop;
                     26: similarly,
                     27: \fIuminc\fR
                     28: filters mail from the user's \fIUUCP\fR maildrop into the user's \fIMMDF\fR
                     29: maildrop.
                     30: These two programs respect each system's maildrop locking protocols.
                     31: 
                     32: \fImusift\fR
                     33: filters each file on the command line
                     34: (or the standard input if no arguments are given),
                     35: and places the result on the standard output in \fIUUCP\fR format.
                     36: The files (or standard input) are expected to be in \fIMMDF\fR format.
                     37: \fIumsift\fR
                     38: does the same thing filtering \fIUUCP\fR formatted files (or input),
                     39: and places the \fIMMDF\fR formatted result on the standard output.
                     40: No locking protocols are used by these programs.
                     41: 
                     42: If the files aren't in the expected format,
                     43: the mail filters will try to recover.
                     44: In really bad cases,
                     45: you may lose big.
