6 This perl script provides easy conversion of your filtering rules
7 form sylpheed's old filter system to the new filtering system used
8 in sylpheed-claws. It reads 'filterrc' and outputs 'filteringrc'.
12 Move 'filter_conv.pl' to the $HOME/.sylpheed directory.
13 From the $HOME/.sylpheed directory, issue the command:
17 That's it, the new filtering system is now implemented with your
18 previous rules applied.

28 This perl script converts a monochrome (1 bit) 48x48 pixels GIF file
29 into an X-Face graphic suitable for inclusion into custom headers of
30 Sylpheed. An X-Face allows to quickly identify (or be identified as)
31 the sender of a mail message in a xface-capable MUA (like sylpheed).
35 After obtaining the desired image for your X-Face you should:
36 * scale it to 48x48 pixels (Image->Scale image on Gimp)
37 * down color depth to b/w (Image->Mode->Indexed selecting "Use
38 Black/White palette" and the desired dithering options (prior to
39 indexing doing Image->Colors->Threshold allows you to select the
40 b/w level if you don't want a dithered (dotty) image))
41 * save file as non-interlaced GIF
44 ./gif2xface < filename.gif > filename.xface
46 In filename.xface will be the X-Face header ready to use.
47 You can add a custom header in Sylpheed through Configuration->
48 Preferences per account, "Send" tab, check "Add user-defined header"
49 then "Edit..." if you want to add it via Sylpheed interface, or do
51 echo "0:" `cat filename.xface` > ~/.sylpheed/customheaderrc
53 if you want to create the custom headers file yourself (Warning: this
54 method is valid only if you don't have any other custom header set or

65 This python script converts the netscape ldif format address book to
66 the sylpheed xml format.
70 Inside Netscape export your address book to a file.
71 From the command line, execute:
73 ./ldif-to-xml.py <path/filename>
75 In case of trouble, just invoke your python interpreter directly:
77 python ldif-to-xml.py <path/filename>
79 Either way a file called addressbook.xml will be generated in the current
80 directory. This xml file should be merged with or simply placed in the
81 $HOME/.sylpheed directory.
