I'm desperately trying to upgrade from RedHat 9 to CentOS 4.4, but the one thing that's really causing me problems is migrating from Evolution 1.2.2 (bundled with RedHat 9) to 2.0.2 (bundled with CentOS 4.4. When running Evolution 2.0.2 for the first time, with Evolution 1.2.2 folders and files in evolution folder in same partition, the automatic migration process starts up and seems to run OK, migrating all folders up to Sent folder successfully. Then disaster - it terminates fatally (error message "..quit unexpectedly..." - no indication of what the problem is). I've even thought about installing Evolution 1.2.2 in CentOS 4.4 (because it works OK for my purposes!), but there are too many problems with this - even though I have the Evolution 1.2.2 rpm, it won't install in CentOS because of missing packages. I really want to upgrade my main system to CentOS 4.4 for the improvements it offers over RedHat 9, but this email thing is a real sticking point at the moment. Is this a known problem or bug with the migration process - should I give up trying to do this, forget about all my previous email stuff and just start again with Evolution 2.0.2? Any suggestions please? Andy _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
open your redhat 9 evolution open your folder select all messages now select file - save as this will export your emails to that file send that file to centos with the new evolution and import that file to your folder . now that you are there you can test Mozilla Thunderbird. to import your mail to Thunderbird copy the saved file to .thunderbird/YOURUSER.default/Mail/Local Folders -- Leonel _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
