evolution version: Evolution 2.0.4
have to move from KMail to Evolution.
I tried to import the mailbox into Evolution, but Evolution doesnt support "import from KMail"
evolution > file > import > import data and settings from Older Program
the followin messages receives
"Evolution checked for settings to import from the following applications: Pine, Netscap, Elm, iCalender. No settings that could be imported where found...."
KMail has created the folder "Mail" in users home directory
cd ~/Mail
ls -l
drwx------ 7 root root 560 May 28 15:32 .

we cannot upgrade the versions of the software, as we are running Novell Linux desktop 9 SP 3, and we are only allowed to install packages from the installation media.
Please help asap

Solution2.Copy the contents of the mail folder you wish to transfer to this newly created mbox folder.
3.Copy from Kmail to Evolution (cp or scp,depends on your setup)
scp /.kde/share/apps/kmail/junk2 me@192.168.1.1:/home/me/.evolution/mail/local
4.Start/Restart evolution and your new folder should show up
