It's a two step process. You create a new account of type "Maildir-format mail directories" and point the path at an existing Maildir store. You then filter your incoming POP mail into that mail account - you can either selectively filter the mail or just put everything in (use a filter condition of 'Source Account' and the action is 'Move to Folder'). If you already have an Mbox format mailbox full of mail then use 'mb2md' to convert it into a Maildir format store, or alternatively once you have the account set up, just copy and paste the mail within Evolution. > > (Did not opt for IMAP as that incurs an extra ISO charge - not good > for pensioners...) > I hope that's not The BCS that's charging extra for IMAP!
