# upgrade-wmmailrc(1)

Upgrades old WMMail.app's config file to the new format

## NAME

upgrade-wmmailrc - Upgrades old WMMail.app's config file to the new format

## SYNOPSIS

**upgrade-wmmailrc *old-wmmailrc* \> *new-WMMail***

## DESCRIPTION

Some conservative assuptions are made to achieve this goal.

## FILES

  **WMMail.app** defaults.

  Old config file
