Description George Langford 2015-01-14 13:25:51 UTC

When I first installed KMail, I started by importing the contents of a Thunderbird profile saved from a WindowsXP SP3 instalation on another computer. This went fine.

However, that took quite a while ... so I shut down this Trisquel flavor of debian/ubuntu and went to bed. Upon the next startup, I tried to import mail from the local installation of Icedove and was met with a brick wall. Import Wizard says it's detecting installed email clients, but appears to be preset to evolution, which I do not have. The import wizard fails to detect Icedove, and there is no mechanism for searching the local file system for other email clients.

Please tell users where the desired profiles should be placed so that the import wizard can find them.

Icedove... why debian renamed program...
there is a ".thunderbird" in home or a ".icedove" ?
