Once I had a similar problem with mail in Outlook, and wrote a small Perl script which exports the mail to text files, and from there on you can use Mail::Folder or whatever to process it and store in mailboxes accessible from linux programs. Several issues however:
1. You need Perl installed on Windows. It's free, of course. 2. You need a basic skills in Perl. 3. I didn't deal with the issue of Hebrew, since all emails I needed to process were in English. There may be problems I am not aware of. Haim Gelfenbeyn. P.S.: I don't know X mail client I can recommend. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Tzahi Fadida > Sent: Tuesday, December 11, 2001 3:25 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: porting from outlook > > > Hi all, > I have gigs of archives of email messages over the years > which are on pst files and are easy for me to search and backup. > The thing is, that i want to work on linux more, and in order > to do that i need to port my email system to another format > while still maintaining the directory structures inside the > .pst and hebrew characters. > Also, i need a program that have strong mailing rules like in > outlook that can also read and write hebrew prefferably in X. > Any one have a solution that will fit the above description? > (anything less then that will not help since my email is > important to me, and actually this is what hold me to windows > and i cannot let go of my archives). > > * - * - * > Tzahi Fadida > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Fax (+1 Outside the US) 240-597-3213 > * - * - * - * - * - * > > > ====================== > To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with > the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command > echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > ================================================================To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
