Re: [Evolution] Converter for *.pst files

[bimal pandit <bimalp indoasian com>]

dear Robb,

there is a way out though not a standerd one but is perfect!!

1)Install mozilla on the system from where you want to import your
mails(from pst format)

2)Start mozilla mail, just configure it for any dummy account

3)now go to Tools-->Import-->mails--><select as per your need>

4)this will import all the mails of Inbox,Draft,Sent while if you need
Deleted contents then in your outlook make a new folder and move all the
Deletd content then import the mail through mozilla.

5)See the location of *.slt file, it is at
Edit-->mail & newsgroup accounts...-->server settings-->local directory

6)copy this *.slt folder to your evolution system, write down the path
where you are keeping this.

7)run evolution and do file-->import-->import single file and go to
<path from step 6>*.slt-->mail-->local folders

now just start importing per file data i.e. Inbox, Sent, Drafts etc...

that's all one need to do...

hope this will help

regards,

bimal
