Other messages in the folder are not\naffected.\n\nIf -automime is given, burst will try to determine if the message is formatted with MIME  and\ncontains  MIME  parts  of type “message/rfc822”.  If it does, it will burst the message using\nMIME formatting rules.  The -mime switch can be used to enforce the use of  MIME  formatting.\nThe -nomime switch will force burst to use RFC 934 rules.\n\nThe  -quiet switch directs burst to be silent about reporting messages that are not in digest\nformat.\n\nThe -verbose switch directs burst to tell the user the general actions that it is  taking  to\nexplode the digest.\n\nIt  turns  out that burst works equally well on forwarded messages and blind-carbon-copies as\non Internet digests, provided that the former were generated by forw or send.\n",

There is usually no limit on the number of messages which may\nreside in the folder after the bursting.\n\nAlthough  burst  uses  a  sophisticated algorithm to determine where one encapsulated message\nends and another begins, not all digestifying programs use an  encapsulation  algorithm.   In\ndegenerate cases, this usually results in burst finding an encapsulation boundary prematurely\nand splitting a single encapsulated message into two or more messages.  These  erroneous  di‐\ngestifying programs should be fixed.\n\nFurthermore,  any  text  which appears after the last encapsulated message is not placed in a\nseparate message by burst.  In the case of digestified messages, this text is usually an “End\nof  digest”  string.   As a result of this possibly unfriendly behavior on the part of burst,\nnote that when the -inplace option is used, this trailing information is lost.  In  practice,\nthis  is  not a problem since correspondents usually place remarks in text prior to the first\nencapsulated message, and this information is not lost.\n\n\n\nnmh-1.7.1                                    2013-02-08                                   BURST(1mh)",
