sorry if I am not clear enough, but I don't know all the terms because I am new to this field. And sorry for my English.
As backup I have all emails from the old provider in form of many folders and files (the files are plain email files - the folders seem to be a flatten structure of the original folders in the webmail).
I need to import all the old mails to the new email accounts which are on gmail via google-apps.
What I tried:
- I used Emailchemy to convert the folders and it seems, that I can reconstruct the folder structure of the old email accounts. (I only tried the demo version so far)
- Then I created a email-account on thunderbird with imap connection to one of the mail accounts at gmail.
- then I tried to import the converted as well as the original mailfiles into the thunderbird account with the import/export thunderbird-addOn.
The Result:
If I try to imort mbox files, thunderbird tells me i cannot import mbox files into a imap account.
If I import folders, some of the folders are created, but not all and no mails are in them.
What can I do? How do you call my problem :D ?
