Re: How to convert Microsoft mail to Netscape mail ?

Hi,

Ok, it is solved. As Daniel said, I've found on the net a program to
convert from Microsoft Internet Mail to Eudora Mail or to Netscape Mail.
The program for this is at:

http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Park/9276/ie42nsc.html 

It's a small program that's doing all the job. Very nice. So, you just
have to
1. import the message folder in Outlook Express (which has plenty of
import filters);
2. rename the .mbx files to .in; 
3. run the command line:

D:\Mail>for %i in (*.in) do IE4toNetscape.exe %i 

4. For each new file, create a new folder in Netscape mail (keep the
names). 
5. Copy the converted files in the Netscape directory (ussualy
~/nsmail/)

Thanks for those who replied.
