Question #76618 on yelp in ubuntu changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/yelp/+question/76618
Brian Gabelman posted a new comment: Thanks! I was able to export the address book from "EARTHLINK TOTAL ACCESS" running under WIN2k to a CSV file. Then I imported the CSV file to "EVOLUTION" running under UBANTU LINUX as follows: First, copy the CSV file to a convenient directory under UBANTU via a jump drive. Go to the "CONTACTS" tab in "EVOLUTION", and click on the "PERSONAL" directory. Then click on "FILE" on the top menu bar, then click "Import" to invoke the "Evolution Import Assistant". Then proceed thru the assistant, specifying the location of the CSV file. This resulted in my address book being populated with all my contacts. What is interesting (and undocumented?) is that EVOLUTION seemed to know that the CSV file represented an addressbook and handled it fairly well (I only had to delete a couple of garbage entries). -bg I On Sat, 2009-07-11 at 02:21 +0000, Derek White wrote: > Your question #76618 on yelp in ubuntu changed: > https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/yelp/+question/76618 > > Status: Open => Answered > > Derek White proposed the following answer: > I assume Earthlink's web mail provides an export option?
