Re: Mailbox Import Wizard no longer sees Eudora mailboxes

The problem is that I have many more mailboxes and folders than that, but for some reason TB is not recognizing them any longer. Try importing them as Unix mail boxes, you will find them in the Eudora directory with an *.mbx extension to the mailbox name. -- Mark Aston mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gunfleet.com http://www.gunfleet.com/LinuxGuide Using The Bat! 1.48 Beta/7 Under Windows NT 5 0 Service Pack 1 2195 -- -- 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
THANKS Re: Mailbox Import Wizard no longer sees Eudora mailboxes
Mark, Your suggested workaround is excellent -- allows me to get the job done and stop futzing around. Odd, though, isn't it, that the Mailbox Import Wizard would work fine initially and then stop working without any changes to TB? The only thing I can think of that's different is that I did ADD a number of mailboxes to my Eudora Pro configuration. Could it be that I exceeded some threshold beyond which TB can't deal with the information from Eudora? I have about 75 Eudora mailboxes plus about 8 or 10 folders each containing 5-10 more mailboxes -- all together maybe 125-150 mailboxes. Any thoughts are welcome, but above all, thanks to Mark for the workaround. best regards, -David Perrotta --- Mark Aston [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi David, Saturday, November 25, 2000, 8:57:53 PM, you wrote: I'm using the Halloween edition for Windows95.

Glad it worked out OK, I really have no idea why TB! wizard did not see the other mailboxes, as you say there may be a limit or it just sees the default boxes. Either way the Eudora boxes are in actually in Unix format anyway, Eudora just creates a *.toc file to index the mailbox. I have a copy of Eudora 5.02 (for experimentation) and when I tried TB! import wizard it could see all of the mailboxes, maybe it's just a problem with 3.05 -- Mark Aston mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gunfleet.com http://www.gunfleet.com/LinuxGuide Using The Bat! 1.48 Beta/7 Under Windows NT 5 0 Service Pack 1 2195 -- -- 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
