I would agree with you Alexey. Another issue I have with Evolution is that when you move any email into a local folder is copies it, it will not just more it. The will be a copy of every moved email into a local folder in Evolutions deleted folder. I logged a bug, but from recognition I got a wontfix. Someone else may be able to confirm status of a move email to another local folder as the file types in Evolution and Thunderbird are Mbox. Once you establish the Evolution directory for the locally held main and copy only the mbox file not the indexing files; you can copy straight into the thunderbird directory and the folder will appear under the locally held folders. You don't need to import as such. The new local mbox file will be self indexed when you open the application. The whole issue about a simple copy of every mbox file from any other source into the local directory. Open thunderbird and all local folder will appear and the application will index and provide the equivalent file name with its new thunderbird index and the mbox file index will be constructed instantly on application open.
The same is true for address books, just about every email client can either hold name address books in v-card or export to a v-card. Thunderbird has a very friendly import of v-card address books where you can manipulate the fields to be retained, reclassified into new fields and ignore certain fields There are other issues with Evolution you all need to be aware of IF you use a KDE desktop. Please review this bug with an open mind based on logic not emotive preferences. https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=206644 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=222519 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=223774 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=213865 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=227359 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=224801 Good Evening to all Scott :-X 16:37 local GMT+10 Alexey Eremenko wrote: > It's all about features you need. > > For example I need my email client to save emails in HTML format. > Evolution does not supports this, so I stick with Thunderbird. >
