Hey Shal,

Sorry for the slow responses. I'm working with folks in the UK so the
timezone shift with questions is fun. :)

Here is the the process my owners are trying to reproduce (how they
work with GNU Mailman):

(1) download the compressed mailbox file for the month I'm interested
in, such as
(2) decompress the file: gunzip 2019-February.txt.gz
(3) make sure that my INBOX is currently empty
(4) use the "mb2md" utility to split the mailbox into individual
message files, and place them in my local $HOME/Maildir directory:
mb2md -s 2019-February.txt
(5) Now my INBOX is filled with the edk2-devel messages & threads from
February 2019. I use the normal Thunderbird functionality to delete
everything that I don't want.
(6) The remaining messages are what I'm interested in. For example, I
can save individual patches or series of patches to local *.eml files,
with Ctrl+S.
(7) Once I have the *.eml files, I can apply them to my local edk2
clone with "git-am".

Let me know if you have any questions on that workflow. It is very
helpful when trying to retrieve old patches that aren't in your
personal archive somewhere.

Cheers,
Stephano
