> Er det muligt at importere sine mails fra kmail til thunderbird?

Jeg fandt selv en løsning:

1. Crank up KMail and and create folders with the format option set to 
mbox as needed to organize your emails. Then copy your emails to these 
new mbox folders. Once you are done you can close KMail.
2. Open Mozilla Thunderbird and in the Local Folder section create a 
folder for each of the folders you created in KMail to organize you 
emails. Now exit Mozilla Thunderbird.
3. then change to the ~./[mozilla]/default/[random 
char].slt/Mail/Local Folders
Inside you will see 2 files with name that match the folders you 
created in Mozilla. Ignore the ones with the .msf extention, and 
create a link to over write the on without an extention that points to 
the corresponding KMail mbox file.
Example:
In KMail you moved all your messages to a single folder called 
KMailExport that was type mbox.
In Mozilla you created a folder in the Local Folder called 
OldKMailMesssages

Then the following would create the needed link.
ln -sf /path/to/your/KMailDir/KMailExport OldKMailMesssages

Og jeg kan afsløre at det virker.
