Hi; I am looking for suggestions, tips or howtos.
Periodically, once every six months or so, I go through my Evo Saved file. I either delete emails I no longer want to save, or move stuff to a sub-folder called MessageArchive. (Lots of good stuff from mailing lists in there). I then copy /home/bill/.evolution/mail/local/Saved.sbd/MessageArchive to a general archive directory where I store all kinds of files that I have archived. I finish by deleting every thing in Evo's MessageArchive. I am then good for another six-eight months My question is: Is there an easy way to read those archived messages if I want to look up something I have archived? A straight text read is difficult to sort out because of the header data and all -- that is what I have been doing whenever I wanted something up to now. Perhaps some awk scripts but that would be a learning curve! I have thought of running a second instance of Evo, but then how would I find the saved Message Archive file? Would I create a link? Copy the files back to /.evolution? Or is there a simple email program like mutt or others that would let me get a quick read of one of these old stored files? I have been playing around, but haven't yet settled on a strategy to dive into. Any suggestions or thoughts would be helpful. -- Regards Bill _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
