Re: [Evolution] importing vCard file doesnt work

[Patrick <evo puzzled xs4all nl>]

Hi Florian,

No direct help but I just saw a little app on sourceforge called
csv2vcard that converts exported (to csv format) contacts from e.g.
Outlook to a proper vcard format which Evolution should be able to
understand/import. http://csv2vcard.sf.net

And if anyone is interested, ol2mbox (http://ol2mbox.sf.net) is a cool
app to convert Oulook's .pst files to mbox format which can then be
imported into Evolution.

Now if only Larry Ewing would find the time to add the Mapi attributes
for Contacts to gtnef (cvs.gnome.org) so we can properly decode and save
vcard info in Evolution. Would a six pack Grolsch do the trick? :) 

Cheers,
Patrick
