* filter_conv.pl WHAT IT DOES This perl script provides easy conversion of your filtering rules form sylpheed's old filter system to the new filtering system used in sylpheed-claws. It reads 'filterrc' and outputs 'filteringrc'. HOW TO USE IT Move 'filter_conv.pl' to the $HOME/.sylpheed directory. From the $HOME/.sylpheed directory, issue the command: perl filter_conv.pl That's it, the new filtering system is now implemented with your previous rules applied.

HOW TO USE IT Inside Netscape export your address book to a file. From the command line, execute: ./ldif-to-xml.py In case of trouble, just invoke your python interpreter directly: python ldif-to-xml.py Either way a file called addressbook.xml will be generated in the current directory. This xml file should be merged with or simply placed in the $HOME/.sylpheed directory. Any problems, contact Rod Senra -----------------------------------------------------------------------
