I have the same problem--only in my case it imports every time exactly 222 messages for inbox and 121 for sent items. might be a coincidence, I haven't tried too many times. I am using Slack 9.1 It would be very helpful if anyone of you could provide a sample Outlook folder which isn't imported correctly. Ingo: You've got email! Now that I switched to kde 3.1.4, I transfered my emails without a problem. Obviously it's a bug of the new filter Well then we can hope that it is easily solved. IIRC the filter was completely rewritten. So I doubt that it will be easily solved. Interestingly lots of problems were reported with the old import filter. So it's surprising that it works for Victor without problems. I wouldn't say totally without problems. I am still not sure if I recovered all of my sent items emails (there are so many of them!), but at least my inbox seems complete. It worked decently if not perfectly. I think this is a problem with duplicate subject lines. KMailCVT now detects this error returned from KMail. Could you send me your example mailbox please for me to check if this is the case. I too have had this problem (Using KDE 3.3.2 from SuSE packages). It imported old emails but not new ones. I will try to get a sample to you (not my computer). I am trying to import OExpress6.0 messages , into KMAIL (SUSE9.2 Distribution = KDE base library ver3.3.0-34 ), and when there are few messages (10 messages) on the .pbx repository there are no problems, instead in the case of bigger, it start from the olders , and after a while, it shows the "Duplicated error" messages, and no more messages are imported. I can attach the OExpress repository, because it is too large, but you can reproduce the error easyly I can reproduce some problems with import OE6 boxes. Please try to reproduce with KDE 3.4 / KMail 1.8. Please import with checked new checkbox 'Remove duplicate messages during import' and tell me how many messages are imported and how much are duplicated. Please also try without remove duplicated messages. CVS commit by dkukawka: - Fixed problems with Outlook Express 5 and 6 *.dbx files. So far only imported mails with flag 0x84. Therefor all mails with flag 0x04 never be imported. Fixed now. - Fixed functions for more interactivity if user cancel the import. BUGS:74975 CCBUGS:60906 M +46 -20 filter_oe.cxx 1.18 M +11 -7 filter_oe.hxx 1.5 *** Bug 104914 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I just installed SuSE 9.3 (KDE 3.4.0, Kmail 1.8) and still couldn't successfully import all my OE e-mails (I previously tried it with SuSE 9.2). I had a look at the changelog for 3.4.1 and I couldn't find any entry related to this issue. I can provide with dozens of folders containing from a few up to thousands (25000) e-mails if necessary (Total mailbox size:~2Gb). Please let me know. As for me, it might be this flag 0x04 issue, but also something completely different as the import process of a particular folder suddenly jumps from 15% to 100% missing nearly 22000 e-mails in the bigger case. This fix is not in the SUSE 3.4.0 Package because the SUSE goldmaster for 9.3. was 24.03.2005. So try this with a newer SUSE package e.g. KDE 3.4.1 |
