I just installed Evolution and, so far, liked its GUI far better than Thunderbird. I am able to download "current" emails from my servers.
The greatest difficulty I am having, though, with client mail servers (which I thought Evo might have resolved) is in importing past or "saved" messages--especially when I purchase a new computer or install to a different OS (say, from Windows to Linux). I have saved--via zip--many of my past email messages either from TB or Eudora. Theses message filetypes are either ".eml" or ".msg" which I do not see in your instructions for importing...your instructions merely say "...and other filetypes." Also, I am not about to import my past emails by "single file"--I have thousands! (which I need for tax and finance histories) How does one import a block of past emails (.eml, or .msg): by highlighting my list, then dropping or pasting them into a blank area of Evolution's Inbox or similar folder?? If not, then I have to go back to TB kicking and screaming which is a bear to import. Using Ubuntu v.15.04, and Evolution v.3.12.11 (Ubuntu Software Center does not download latest v. 3.18) Thanks... Robert
