Utility for one-time down/upgrade of Exim message-id formats
in spool files. Only the filenames and first-line ID tag values
are affected; not message content such as Message-ID fields.
Only -H, -D and -J files are handled.
Usage: exim_id_update [-d | -u | -h | -v] [spooldir]
-d --downgrade downgrade mode
-h --help help message
-u --upgrade upgrade mode
-v --version show version and exit cleanly
--verbose more output about what's going on
--force force overwriting (may be required after failure)
--dry dry run (do file operations, but cleanup and keep the old files)
Exactly one of -d|--downgrade or -u|--upgrade must be given.
The spool directory defaults to the build-time value,
or can be given as a command-line argument.
