Description Raga Prong 2004-05-28 13:03:22 UTC
Version:           1.6.2 (using KDE 3.2.2,  (testing/unstable))
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.3 (Debian 20040401)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.4.22-xfs

In another Wish-Bug, I plead for a Profile Pilote.

This is a vote for importing identities from a pmail.ini file. It contains sections like this for identities:

[WinPMail Identity - Raga]
Personal name                             = Raga Prong
Home mailbox location                     =
Folder for copies to self                 = COPYSELF
Commenting string                         = "> "
Default reply-to address                  = ragaprong@gmx.de
...
Default mail folder name                  = INBOX
...
Host where POP3 mail account is located   = pop.gmx.de
POP3 mail account (username on host)      = 126952
V2 Password for POP3 mail account         = $)eL390
Delete downloaded mail from host          = Y
Largest message size to retrieve          = 0
Directory to place incoming POP3 mail     = D:\PMAIL\MAIL\R
Transport control word                    = 98565
SMTP relay host for outgoing mail         = mail.gmx.de
Search mask to locate outgoing messages   = D:\PMAIL\MAIL\R\*.PMX
Alternative From: field for message       = raga@gmx.de
TCP/IP timeout value (seconds)            = 30

Of course, not all lines should be translated, but the mailtransport / reception server and identity name can be helpfull. I'd plea for doing this using a query for each identity found.

There is a pegasus message importer now. Is it that what you want?
