Re: [Evolution] import heaps of eudora mail?

[Sean M Alderman <sean m alderman grc nasa gov>]

I was able to convert from eudora to evo using a nice perl tool by a guy
named Tim Coston.  I found it on Freshmeat.net.  It's a collection of
scripts which convert between kmail, eudora, netscape and evolution. 
The scripts center around kmail, but it was simple to convert eudora to
kmail then kmail to evolution.  I did loose all the attachments, but I
think that had more to do with the way the infrastructure guys have
eudora setup here (attachments are stored in a set directory on a
network drive).
