I think you understood this wrongly. Opera makes a file for every email, which end with .mbs.
Hmm, I'm surprised they started doing this. I'd ask in the Opera forums how you could most easily convert them to mbox, although if you don't have too many than right-clicking them in Opera doesn't sound too bad.
If you want to import these you have import every file seperately. This works but..Imagine what a job!
If it's every file individually, then yes. I'd head straight to the Opera forums.
So right-mouse-clicking is the only way, to my opinion. Nowedays I store every mail as a .ps(printjob) in seperated subject-directories. Therefore I will be independant from mail clients ( I am sick of those compatiblity issues)
What?!?
Or am I wrong?
Roland, my friend, you are wrong. :) I agree that you _must_ store the mail in an open, documented file format that is not encoumbered by proprietary licensing and bs,bs,bs... That's why you should store the mail in Plain Text- UTF-8 encoded preferably. That's exacly what the mbox format is, a plain text file of all you emails (in a given folder) seperated by two newlines and their own headers. This is a very standard format, and everything that I know of (Except Outlook and possibly Eudora) support it. In a dire emergency, you could even open them in pine or vi (or nano!).
