I believe that TB uses plain mbox files. I tend to keep my evolution local mail in maildir format I think something along the lines of the following conversions have worked for me in the past. Note that these are moves, the originating file will be empty/removed after the invocation. I generally copy the mbox file to /tmp and use it in the move. Don't forget evolution --force-shutdown first. movemail is part of GNU mailutils package. copy original mbox file to cur.mbox then movemail "/tmp/cur.mbox" "maildir:///tmp/newMaildir" convert from maildir to mbox copy original maildir folder to newMaildir then movemail "maildir:///tmp/newMaildir" "/tmp/cur.mbox" As a quick test, i just copied an old TB Local Folders/Sent file to /tmp and ran movemail Sent "maildir:///tmp/newMaildir" then mutt -f /tmp/newMaildir and it looks to be fine. _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
