I believe outlooks mbx format is different from UW's which basically an mbox with some extra headers. According to this you can install uw-imap and simply copy the mbx files and it'll work. Not only that, but c-client is a free (C) library for handling mail messages. Mahogany (a GTK+ based MUA) uses it, As does pine, tkrat and PHP's Imap module that I know off.

(OT) POP Outlook Folders to Imap Linux
Hi all, I installed exim, wu-imapd-ssl and ipopd-ssl from woody in a Potato Debian GNU/Linux machine. All is working fine. I have a machine with 200 POP folders in Outlook that I cant get them I put them inside Imap folders. Any hints?

Maybe you could use mozilla to convert the outlook mailboxes to imap mailboxes and then use the mail client you want (with imap support), for new mail.

Hi Theo and others, Is there any other way to do this? Install Netscape 6 in every machine that wants to migrate this is a pain. TIA,Paulo Henrique.

Re: [suporte] Re: (OT) POP Outlook Folders to Imap Linux
Hi, Outlook (Outoflook) allow me only to move messages (not folders) to an imap folder. So if I have 20 folders I have to create them manually as imap folders and get folder by folder and move messages Outlook saves mail in a *strange* mbx format. :( Any hints?

For real? Not some weird undocumented thing? http://www.washington.edu/imap/documentation/formats.txt.html mbx This is the current preferred mailbox format. It can be handled quite efficiently by c-client, without the problems that exist with unix and mmdf formats. Messages are stored in Internet standard CR LF format. mbx permits shared access, including shared expunge. It preserves UIDs, and allows the creation of keywords. According to this you can install uw-imap and simply copy the mbx files and it'll work. Not only that, but c-client is a free (C) library for handling mail messages. Mahogany (a GTK+ based MUA) uses it, and thus ought to be able to handle mbx as well. A google search also found a spec for mbx which I've tossed up at http://dman.ddts.net/~dman/mbx.txt. Worst-case scenario (if the files really are mbx and can be found on-disk) you write some C code to read the mbx and spit it back out in maildir (or whatever) :-).
