I see that a number of denizens on this list are former OS/2 or eCS users. I finally gave up on that platform in mid-2007 (in favour of what is now openSUSE) since it was becoming too much of a struggle to keep eCS apace with the possible. I have of course been able to transfer the 15 years' of work files that were on the OS/2 system into openSUSE, but with one exception. That exception is the accumulation of emails across many years in Yarn/2, which I still need to consult from time to time. To a degree, this situation would have been eased if I'd been able to get OS/2 up and running in a virtual machine under openSUSE. But, despite many attempts and much frustration, I have not been able to get any of the OS/2 flavours to work satisfactorily as a VirtualBox guest in an openSUSE host. That includes eCS 2.0 and the latest editions of VBox. In consequence I've kept an older computer in a sufficient operational condition to run eCS 1.2 for occasional forays into the Yarn/2 email archives when needed, which is clumsy, but at least it has worked so far. But it won't work forever. Against that day, what I'd like to do is convert the contents of archived Yarn/2 mail folders into mbox format so I can then import them into Thunderbird or other mailer running on openSUSE (currently 12.1). I've googled all over the place, and this has yielded only a small handful of relevant returns, none of which has led to anything useful. I'd be very grateful therefore if some ex-OS/2 guru - or anyone else - could help me with achieving this Yarn/2 => unix conversion. Thank you.
