One thing that ximian need to work on, and fast, and something that will be able to convert from ms outlook. As for today, if you have your entire history stored in outlook (and I had like 2gb of history) you have to convert It to .dbx first (outlook express) and then into kmail, and then into evolution.
To much of a head ache if you are dealing with a large amount of data. Ximian call's their latest version 1.0, but as ira said a few days ago, it still acts like a beta. ;( Tal. -----Original Message----- From: Tzafrir Cohen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: � 24 ����� 2002 21:26 To: Amir Tal Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: KMail question On Thu, 24 Jan 2002, Amir Tal wrote: > Max, > > Evolution 1.0 knows how to import from pine, so I think that all you > really need is to copy your mail folder's From your ~/Mail to ~/mail > (kmail to pine) and import to evolution from pine. pine stores its mail in mbox format (by default). It is not the only one, BTW. From what Maxim wrote, it seems that KMail does the same. What about evolution? There is a file called "mbox" in every message folder of evolution. But it doesn't seem to be in the mbox format. Hmmm: before you start thinking about using evolution: do you have a evolution->mbox (maildir/mh/whatever) convertor? -- Tzafrir Cohen /"\ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] \ / ASCII Ribbon Campaign Taub 229, 972-4-829-3942, X Against HTML Mail http://www.technion.ac.il/~tzafrir / \ ================================================================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]
