Re: Importing mail from Outlook (not Express!)
Hi Dirk and Christian, Yes I a few months ago. I have import the Outlook mails in OE and then Import the mails from OE to TB!. BTW: I loose some header info at the import (References, Received, What's "References"? By "Received" I think you mean received date/time, right? ...), but i don't know is this changed with the newer version from TB!. No, it's not. Because OE doesn't store the received date/time in its message base in the sense TB does. I.e., OE doesn't record the date/time your PC retrieves mail from the server. The received date/time shown in OE (and several other email clients) is in fact taken from the last (topmost) "Received" field which is the date/time when your server got the message. I agree TB should take this into account in its future release, and also be able to import from Outlook and maybe some other clients. The smoother the path for new users to convert their old mail, the easier for them to ..., well, convert. For the time being, you'll have to export the messages to a unix mailbox (after importing them into TB) and make changes there. With a macro-capable editor it's not too hard won't take too much time. I still have my macros available if you happen to be using Ultraedit. -- Best regards, Ming-Li Using The Bat! 1.45 Beta/11 under Win2k -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

Servus Ming-Li, Am 20.07.2000 so gegen 11:44 meintest Du: What's "References"? By "Received" I think you mean received date/time, right? Nop. It's used for threading and contains the message-ID(s) to which the message replies, adding the one that you replied to to the already existing list. See in the headers of this message ;) Cheers, Johannesmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Faulheit ist, mit dem Cocktailshaker in der Hand auf ein Erdbeben zu warten -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

Hi Ming-Li, On Thu, 20 Jul 2000 06:08:03 -0700, you wrote: ML Ok, that's Reference. I still think what Dirk meant by "Received" ML should be what I said. I am talking about Received:. That header contain the Routing of the mails. Thats the first example for an missing header entry that come me in mind. No really importend to have this header entry. ML Knowing what "Reference" is, I don't think TB has trouble importing ML it, or any other information on the message header. ML Could you be more specific, Dirk? After impoting my mail from OE i get this headers (This are a example from my archive): : From: "xx " [EMAIL PROTECTED] : To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] : Subject: [Palm] PocketMirrow und PalmProfessionel : Date: Fri, 20 Aug 1999 09:45:17 +0200 : MIME-Version: 1.0 : Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" : Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable : X-Priority: 3 : X-MSMail-Priority: Normal : X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V4.72.2106.4 sure there are more Header on this mail in Outlook.

Hi Dirk, The interesting Header i am missing are: Message-ID: In-reply-To: References: And sure the recived time are missing. This is very strange. I imported all my mail from OE to The Bat not too long ago (around late May or early June), and I'm sure all the headers are imported intact. (I've just checked some of my old mail to be sure.) Are you sure those header fields aren't ripped elsewhere (e.g., in the process from Outlook to OE)? -- Best regards, Ming-Li Using The Bat! 1.45 Beta/11 under Win2k -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org
