==== Using KAddressBook ====

Thunderbird cannot directly import the vCard format, so your exported addressbook needs to be converted using one of the two methods described below.
From the Help Documentation at the Mozilla Wiki is [[https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:Help_Documentation:Migrating_to_Mozilla_Thunderbird|this solution using KAddressBook]].
+
* "To import address book from evolution 2.4, first select all the contacts by pressing Ctrl+A. This shall select all the contacts. Now, right click and click on Save As VCard. Save the file with a .vcf extension. Open Kaddressbook and click on Import VCF file; select the vcf file you exported. This will move all contacts in KAddressbook. Now, click on export in Kaddressbook and export contacts as ldif file.
+
* Open TB, select import -> address book -> ldif file. Select the ldif file you exported from KAddressbook and let TB do the magic.

One suggestion is to use a [[http://labs.brotherli.ch/vcfconvert/|online conversion utility]] to convert the vCard format to LDIF, then import the LDIF format in Thunderbird."

Create a new mail account in Thunderbird so that you don't replace any emails in your existing accounts. Do this by selecting ''Edit > Account Settings > Add Account'' in Thunderbird.
Select ''Email Account > Next''. Leave identity settings as they are and select ''Next''. Set the ''Incoming Server'' to ''localhost'' and remove the tick from ''Use Global Inbox'', continue by selecting ''Next''. Leave the ''Incoming user name'' as it is, select ''Next''. Change the ''Account Name'' to something relevant such as ''Evolution Mail''.

Select Email Account and click Next. Leave identity settings as they are, click Next. Set both the ''Incoming Server'' and ''Outgoing Server'' to <code><nowiki>localhost</nowiki></code> and uncheck ''Use Global Inbox'', continue by clicking ''Next''. Leave the ''Incoming user name'' as it is, select ''Next''. Change the ''Account Name'' to something relevant such as ''Evolution Mail''.
Once the settings are created return to ''Edit -> Account Settings'' and select the ''Server Settings'' option under the ''Evolution Mail'' account. Take note of the ''Local Directory'' Setting. It will be a string like "/home/yourloginname/.mozilla-thunderbird/a2ti6rsz.default/Mail/localhost". This is where all mail is stored for this account.

Open up two windows to your Home Directory. Navigate in one of the windows to the path that Thunderbird has assigned for your email storage above. HINT: CTRL+h in your home folder will show all hidden files and folders so you will be able to see the ".mozilla-thunderbird" folder. Once you are in this folder you will see some files in there with names such as Inbox, Inbox.msf, Junk.msf and so on.

Open up two windows to your Home Directory. In one of the windows navigate to the path that Thunderbird has assigned for your email storage (.mozilla-thunderbird is a hidden folder, so press CTRL+H to see it). You should see some files called Inbox.msf, Sent.msf, etc.
In the other window from your home folder navigate to ".evolution/mail/local" This is where any locally stored mail from Evolution is placed. There are a similar set of files to what you see in the Thunderbird folder, Inbox, Drafts and so on.

In the other window from your home folder navigate to .evolution/mail/local This is where any locally stored mail from Evolution is placed. There are a similar set of files to what you see in the Thunderbird folder, Inbox, Drafts and so on.
Copy the files named Inbox, Sent, Outbox and Drafts from the evolution folder to the mozilla-thunderbird folder (dragging and dropping while holding down your ctrl key will copy rather than move the files). When it asks if its ok to overwrite them just say yes. Its ok, nothing bad will happen. Its just a copy. You can trust me. Honest.
+
Copy the files named Inbox, Sent, Outbox and Drafts from the .evolution/mail/local folder to the .mozilla-thunderbird/.../localhost folder. Click replace when you are warned that some files already exist in the folder.
If you have your mail folders organised in evolution under your Inbox there will be a sub directory called "Inbox.sbd" under the .evolution/mail/local/ directory. In that directory you will find files named the same as your folders such as Humour, Humour.cmeta, Humour.ev-summary, Humour.ibex.index and so on. Of course, this depends on what you've called your folders.

For any of the folders you want to move to Thunderbird select the file WITHOUT any extension and copy it to the .mozilla-thunderbird/.../localhost folder.
For any of the folders you want to move to Thunderbird chose the file WITHOUT any extension and copy it to the localhost folder where you previously placed the Inbox and other files.
+
Open Thunderbird and you should see all your mail and the relevant folders in the account you previously created. You can keep the mail there or move it into other accounts.
Thats all there is to it! Open Thunderbird and you should see all your mail and the relevant folders under the "Evolution Mail" account. You can keep the mail there or move it around in Thunderbird. The choices are yours.

  1. title Migrating from Evolution to Thunderbird

Introduction

This pages explains how to migrate your addressbooks and mail from Evolution to Thunderbird.

Addressbooks

Export From Evolution

In Evolution, choose the address book you wish to export. From the file menu choose: 'Save address book as Vcard'. This will export the currently selected address to a single vCard (vcf) file. Repeat this step for every address book you wish to export. Thunderbird cannot directly import the vCard format, so your exported addressbook needs to be converted using one of the two methods described below.

Online Conversion

From the Help Documentation in the Mozilla Wiki: Use an online conversion utility to convert the vCard file to an LDIF file. Open Thunderbird, select Tools > Import... > Address Book > LDIF file. Select the LDIF file that was created by the online conversion tool.

Conversion Using KAddressBook

From the Help Documentation in the Mozilla Wiki: Open KAddressBook and click on "Import VCF file"; select the vcf file you exported. This will move all contacts into KAddressBook. Now, click on "Export" in KAddressBook and export contacts as an LDIF file. Open ThunderBird, select Tools > Import... > Address Book > LDIF file. Select the LDIF file you exported from KAddressBook.

Mail

Preparation

Create a new mail account in Thunderbird so that you don't replace any emails in your existing accounts. Do this by selecting Edit > Account Settings > Add Account in Thunderbird. Select Email Account and click Next. Leave identity settings as they are, click Next. Set both the Incoming Server and Outgoing Server to localhost and uncheck Use Global Inbox, continue by clicking Next. Leave the Incoming user name as it is, select Next. Change the Account Name to something relevant such as Evolution Mail. Once the settings are created return to Edit > Account Settings and select the Server Settings option under the Evolution Mail account. Take note of the Local Directory Setting. It will be a string like "/home/yourloginname/.mozilla-thunderbird/a2ti6rsz.default/Mail/localhost". This is where all mail is stored for this account. Now that the account is created and you know where to find it (you wrote down the path didn't you?) and you can transfer the emails from Evolution.

Transferring Mail

Open up two windows to your Home Directory. In one of the windows navigate to the path that Thunderbird has assigned for your email storage (.mozilla-thunderbird is a hidden folder, so press CTRL+H to see it). You should see some files called Inbox.msf, Sent.msf, etc. In the other window from your home folder navigate to .evolution/mail/local This is where any locally stored mail from Evolution is placed. There are a similar set of files to what you see in the Thunderbird folder, Inbox, Drafts and so on. Copy the files named Inbox, Sent, Outbox and Drafts from the .evolution/mail/local folder to the .mozilla-thunderbird/.../localhost folder. Click replace when you are warned that some files already exist in the folder. If you have your mail folders organised in evolution under your Inbox there will be a sub directory called "Inbox.sbd" under the .evolution/mail/local/ directory. In that directory you will find files named the same as your folders. For any of the folders you want to move to Thunderbird select the file WITHOUT any extension and copy it to the .mozilla-thunderbird/.../localhost folder. Open Thunderbird and you should see all your mail and the relevant folders in the account you previously created. You can keep the mail there or move it into other accounts.
