Re: [Evolution] troubles with contacts (PS ximian linuxworld was great)

[Allan Gottlieb <gottlieb nyu edu>]

I am still having trouble loading cards from my palm pilot.  I have
used preview 8 previously without success and today I tried the latest
snapshot evolution-0.8-100_helix_2001020416

The file
I am importing was created by gnome pilot and begins

Evolution produces 4 ``blank cards'' (no problem to delete them) and
then does produce a contact list but it includes no phone numbers.
There are about 100 entries in the Address.vcrd file and evolution
does seem to produce a contact for each one.

Here is the output evolution sends to the controlling terminal.

thanks for any help and thanks for evolution.
