[Evolution] Importing CSV into evolution

2007-07-15 Thread Michelle Murrain
Hi,

I'm migrating from a Mac OS X desktop to Linux, and I want to get my
contacts into Evolution. I've exported a CSV from Apple's addressbook
(using a third party tool - addressbook doesn't export natively
.)

I first tried exporting using that tool's "Outlook filter" - but that
csv didn't import into Evolution (using the Outlook file type) at all,
for some reason. 

I tried various other things, all of which resulted in munged contacts. 

Lastly, I exported a dummy record out of Mozilla thunderbird, and
rearragned the column order *exactly* using OO spreadsheet, then
imported that CSV into evolution using the mozilla file type - I *still*
got munged contacts.

Any suggestions for how to deal with this? Documentation on the
column/field order expected, or other ways to get around this problem
would be greatly appreciated.

Peace,
Michelle

Fir IMAP alone, the labels are synced with the server. For the rest of
the providers labels are local. The label's tags are $Label1, $Label2
etc.

You can still do it. Just see if you have added the header to the list
of headers that are fetched (edit->preferences->edit_account, IMAP
Headers tab)
