While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug (given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more reproduction information if you have it. If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved. Thank you for your help in this matter.

Evolution is the default mail client, and is deeply integrated. I want to use Thunderbird again, and would like to make a smooth transition to it. Unfortunately, other than a "Duct tape and bailing wire" solution found on the Internet, there doesn't seem to be any way to do this.

I wish I could save the 2 hours I spent today migrating from (and dealing with incompatilbilities between) evolution to thunderbird... + time to file bugs even though this was known for 1,5 years.

All it supports at the moment is address book import, but, in the meantime, I had to patch configure.in and a few other things to support that much. I'm still playing around with the namespace stuff (dmose suggested mozilla::messaging, so I'm seeing how that works out). I still need to tackle mail import, and I want to add some tests as well. Since I've learned a lot about import, I'll also write up documentation, so don't expect to see a comprehensive, review-ready patch for a while.

Because easily importing old mail and contact of Ubuntu user is necessary... Note that Thunderbird 5 will natively import vcard file, which is also the format used by Evolution, so this point should not really be a problem anymore.

As far as Ubuntu is concerned for now, "importing" address books amount to adding an e-d-s address book in Thunderbird, so we don't need to actually import data. 2. Most of the settings are basically gconf (at least for now), so importing settings is fairly easy. 3. We have not started worrying about message import. If mbox is the storage backend, that is very easy to import (cp/ln the file to the profile directory). If it's mh or maildir... we'd have to have a better system.

My 2 cents: - Evolution 2.32 (default for Ubuntu 11.04) use mbox storage. - Evolution 3.0 (default for Fedora 15) use MailSir storage (as indicated here: http://live.gnome.org/Evolution/Planning30 ) So it need to be defined if this bug only address import from Evolution 2.3 (mbox), or also try to cover Evolution 3.0 (maildir).
