Re: KMAIL, reorginizing messages

Thunderbird still doesn't handle Maildir, which means that if you run kmail

For me it's a show stopper, I can't see enough advantages in Thunderbird to go
through this much work (plus I wouldn't want to change to mbox anyway).

You can switch your mail to MBox and then migrate. I don't know if it
will automatically migrate it, but worth a backup and go? Don't get me
confused with them, I only use Thunderbird because the UI in evolution
calendar bugs me, it's a bit buggy so I'll be the last person to try and
push Thunderbird on you.
