HOW TO USE IT
Move 'filter_conv.pl' to the ~/.sylpheed directory.
From the ~/.sylpheed directory, issue the command:
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.

* ldif-to-xml.py

This python script converts the netscape ldif format address book to
the sylpheed xml format.
HOW TO USE IT
Inside Netscape export your address book to a file.
From the command line, execute:
./ldif-to-xml.py <path/filename>
In case of trouble, just invoke your python interpreter directly:
python ldif-to-xml.py <path/filename>
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 <rodrigo.senra@ic.unicamp.br>
