    Hello.

    When saving text posts with the "--text mbox:..." option, you can't specify a full path to your mbox. Only a pure basename in to the retrieve
    directory is allowed. It should be possible to specify a full path.

    I've tried to add this myself, but the source code is messy and undocumented.
