I would like to import my mail from KMail to Evolution. My KMail folders are
in MBox format. I have tried simply copying the folders to the correct
Evolution location, importing with automatic detection, and importing with
MBox selected. All three have the same results--I lose emails. In one folder
of about 50 I lost about 12. They seem to come in as blank emails, no body,
no headers. I have compacted the folder before importing. I understand that
there are different MBox formats.
Any suggestion or will I just have to give up on importing into Evolution? I
could convert all the folders to MailDir, but what good would that do?
BTW. I couldn't figure out how to search the archives for this topic.
