Re: [Evolution] Merging Inbox/Outbox files



I only have one instance of evolution and one dev box. The old
Inbox/Outbox files are backed up and I have no way of opening them up in
evolution right now. They won't import. Yet, they weren't changed during
the upgrade to 12.04 (I checked modification dates).

I can't drag and drop messages if I can't open evolution with the old
Inbox/Outbox files.

Evolution does work now, but I only have the emails that were sent to me
after the upgrade.

If you have an mbox file with mail in, then the best way of importing it
is to use Evolution's import facility.  If the import comes up with
errors, then the file is corrupt.

You can also create an MBOX type account and drag-n-drop the messages
from one account/mailbox to the other account/mailbox using the folder
tree.
