In my initial post I questioned, as a newbie, how to access the email files
I was given that were in dovecot format, and a few people were kind enough
to explain things to me a bit. But some of the solutions were a bit over
my head.
And then I found a solution. I downloaded an app called "SysTools Maildir
Converter" and was able to convert the whole email file into a .pst file,
and input it in Outlook. Now all my emails are accessible, and I can reply
to them like any other emails in Outlook.
The only thing I don't exactly understand is that each folder I had with
emails in it has a subfolder called "cur" and that is where all the emails
reside. It is not an issue, just not sure exactly why that is so. (If
someone has an idea why the emails are in "cur" subfolders rather than
directly in the folders, and can explain it to me without getting super
technical, that would be great. But it isn't a big deal, I'm just curious.)
