Hi,
there are a lot of different ways of import/export with KMail, KMailCVT, Pi=
m =
Setting Exporter, Import Wizard etc.
To be able to provide proper documentation for KDEPim Users this needs to b=
e =
sorted out/clarified and explained.
As first step to get there I have collected all my infos about that topic:
Import + Export of Mails + PIM Data
0) Export / View single mails in KMail via File->Save As / Open
Import via kmailcvt (mbox), in 4.12 via mboximporter?
Use case: Transfer single mails
1) akonadi_folderarchive_agent (needs a proper Name for GUI+Docs?)
KMail Folder->Archive Folder or Archive Folder from a folders context menu
Export of a mail folder and its subfolders to zip/tar/tar.bz2/tar.gz
Import via kmailcvt (KMail Archive)
Use case: transfer single KMail folders(+subfolders) from/to accounts or =
computers
2) kmailcvt ("KMailCVT")
Standalone + in KMail via File->Import Messages
Select any location of archive / mail folder from different apps + import =
In 4.11 the only application able to import kmail archive, mbox, plain text?
Use case:
Transfer mails from different apps from any account/computer, =
e.g copy a top mail folder of another application to a USB stick and import =
that?
3) pimsettingsexporter ("PIM Settings Exporter")
Standalone + in KMail via Tools->Export KMail Date -> Back up Data / Restor=
e =
Data
Import + Export of settings + data to/from zip Archiv
Resources, Mail Transport, Config, Identity, Mails, Akonadi Database (more?)
Use case: Transfer a selectable set of pim data, but only whole =
resources/transport/config/mails/akonadi data, =
no single mail folders or resources or identities or ...
4) importwizard (change name in GUI to "Import Wizard"?)
Standalone + in KMail via Tools->Import Wizard
Detects mail from other mailer applications in user account automatically
Use case: Import all Mails from another Mail application in the user accoun=
t =

Please check this info, correct all errors, comment and/or confirm if right.
Thanks.
