Yes, I have some old archives preserved as tar.bz2 files, but I can't import |
| 7 |
them into KMail because of some internal damage to many of the messages. I |
| 8 |
think the damage was caused by a gradually developing hardware problem |
| 9 |
(which has eventually forced me into replacing the whole box), and KMail, |
| 10 |
akonadi and friends can't handle the mess. They aren't what I would call |
| 11 |
defensively programmed. They either throw wobblers or refuse to co-operate |
| 12 |
at all. |

|
| 14 |
So I have the basic data and can use standard tools to examine them if |
| 15 |
necessary; that will have to do for now. Meanwhile, KMail is working happily |
| 16 |
with stuff originating on the new box - apart from the apparently inevitable |
| 17 |
duplicate messages of course. |

Is there some documentation on how to do that? I doubt it would help me |
| 23 |
because the problem smells like higher up the stack, but you never know... |
