+       This python script integrates a Thunderbird folder tree into 
+        Sylpheed-Claws.
+

+  
+       The script receives two parameters from command-line:
+       <Thunderbird folder path> <Sylpheed folder path>
+
+       The best way to use it is to go to inside your Thunderbird
+       root mailfolder directory and invoke it as:

+  WHAT IT DOES

+       sylpheed's new filter system (>= 0.9.99) to the filtering system used in

+       Issue the following command from the 'tools' directory:
