Hi Ya'll!
WOW switching to KMAIL was EASY!
I exported the folders one at a time from Claws by going to FILE > EXPORT
FOLDER TO MBOX ( I believe it was?) And then in KMAIL I went to FILE >
IMPORT and select the 2nd option for MBOXES and viola! done.
My question is now, which option do I use for Filters?
POP filtering? under SETTINGS > CONFIGURE POP FILTERS
or MESSAGE > CREATE FILTER
Background Info:
ALL POP accounts
Hi Chris, (Welcome to TDE!)
It depends :)
I'm sure someone will correct me with better details.
- POP is (AFAIK) for filtering on the mail server, such that you can
completely not download and delete messages off the mail server.
- MESSAGE filters are done locally. I use these exclusivly, as then even
stuff I think is 'trash' just goes to the trash folder, so I can retrieve it
as needed.
Note!: Do make a full backup of your mail before creating filters (of any
kind) as one typo, or miss click in a drop down, and you can delete mail you
might want to keep.
Best,
Michael
