You mean January is over *already*?

Then I definitely need it. I am so disorganized, any organization at
all will help.

Thunderbird is the topic. I think. Tony is demoing the program and Ray
is showing his installation and setup tricks. I think.

I want to know about importing and exporting the messages, filters,
address book and bookmark file (did I miss anything?) between
Thunderbird and my Netscape 2.02 (which uses SORT.DAT for filtering);
others will probably want the same info for their favorite email
programs (MR/2, PMMail, Polarbar, whatever). The
Netscape-Mozilla-Thunderbird messages are stored in single files whereas
the others store each message in a separate file. I think. So how do
you convert? As for filtering, I almost switched to Polarbar except you
can't have custom filters for each folder, i.e. I can't filter all my
high-priority messages into one folder, peruse that folder, and then
filter that one folder to other folders (I came up a workaround by
filtering the messages to other mail accounts but that's not very
workable in real life).

Ray, how much time do you want?
