[SLE] OK, Let me re-phrase it
I need help. I need an email setup that will read the mail files that Netscape created on my local system. I don't really care which emailer, I just want to get away from bloatware. The email files are in a tree format with mail subdirectories in physical subdirectories. I would like to preserve the tree structure.

Hmm, Pine can do that. Just rename ~/nsmail to ~/Mail and you should be set.

I've recently switched to kmail. I exported my netscape address book to a text file and then picked out the names and composed another text file with the following format: SOME NICE DESCRIPTION <therealemailaddres@isp> To make a group address I use: SOME GROUP NAME <firstaddr@isp>,<secondaddr@anotherisp>, etc...., for the rest of the members of the group. Then I cut and past them into the kmail addressbook found at: ~/.kde/share/apps/kmail It works great!

Aha! There is a way to make a group alias! Is there a limit to how many email addresses, or characters, it can hold? -- Bob Rea Freedom is only privilege extended unless enjoyed by one and all --Billy Bragg rear@sirius.com rrea@askjeeves.com http://www.sirius.com/~rear -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
