Yes, also in the address field. For example, the accents in my last name were all properly imported. Powerfull this PowerMail! >>The strange thing is that >>only the date of the emails that I have sent was >>affected, not the date of the ones I have >>received. >Maybe you could export first, before you import and export sent items >differently? There is no export option in Eudora 6.2.3., and Brice Dardel's "Eudora mailbox converter to PowerMail 3", which is mentioned in PowerMail's manual, didn't solve my problem either. But I did find a way around the problem anyway. Indeed, I figured out after opening a Eudora 6.2.3 mailbox with BBEdit that my problem was due to the date format of the emails that I sent prior to 2002. All the emails sent in 2002 or after had the following format : dayofweek, dd mm yyyy hh:mm:ss (ex. Wed, 04 Aug 1999 12:13:14). But those sent prior to 2002, i.e., those that had a wrong date after importing them into PowerMail, had the following format: dayofweek mm dd hh:mm:ss yyyy (ex. Wed Aug 04 12:13:14 1999). So I changed the date format of the corrupted emails in that mailbox, and then I imported the mailbox once again using the File>Database>Import command in the PowerMail menu. Result: all the dates were adequate! Now all I need to do is go through my numerous mailboxes and change manually the date of my older emails. This could take time. All I hope is that the result will be worth the effort.
