I have an HCL Notes (formerly Lotus Notes then IBM Notes) account used

standard email setup using IMAP on Maildir mailboxes.
Does anyone know a good solution for doing this?
I usually utilize imapfilter[0] for that. But there are many more out
there. You could even "miss"use dovecot[1] for that. But I never done
that.
I used offlineimap in the past for similar tasks. However, HCL Notes
does not speak IMAP by default, and the mail administrators here are not
interested in setting it up.
- I can drag-and-drop individual email messages from the HCL Notes
client into a filesystem folder to get an export in .eml files. These
can be then imported quite easily into a Maildir folder. I tried this on
a few messages and it seem to work. However, I read that this solution
may have reliability problems when applied to a large amount of
messages. It does not work for calendar invites and maybe other things
that appear as email messages in HCL Notes.
Maybe you could use firefox if you are for a manual approach.
Firefox? Do you mean Thunderbird?
Cheers,
Dan
