Sylpheed lets you export email into mbox format. Evo lets you import mbox files. No problem! The way that Evo locally stores email has nothing to do with how it gets that email. In Evo, define a mail account that stores email using MH, and receives email using POP.How do i define that i want to receive using POP and store in MH format? I've found no way of doing this in 2.0!
Geez, you're right. It expects another process to put the mail into the relevant MH directory. That's no huge deal, though. A lot of us use something like fetchmail to automatically grab the email from the POP server, whether Evo is running or not. In my case, fetchmail passes each email to postfix, which then dumps each mail into a Maildir folder using maildrop. Evo 1.x would let you specify each folder as mbox, MH or Maildir. That's gone in 2.0, though, and I'd be hopping mad about it, if I wasn't using IMAP. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson, LA USA PGP Key ID 8834C06B All of the "reporting" about Laci Peterson & Michael Jackson reminds me of the Don Henley song "Dirty Laundry": "Can we do the operation?
