This module integrates your Mozilla Thunderbird 1.0 tree to
your sylpheed MH mailbox tree.
The script receives two parameters from command-line:
<Thunderbird folder path> <Sylpheed folder path>
Best way to use it is to go to inside yout Thunderbird
root mailfolder directory and invoke it as:
<path>\python2.4 <path>\tbird2syl.py . <path to sylpheed>\Mail
This idiom will avoid the creation of the folder Thunderbird inside
your sylpheed folder tree.
If the names of your directories match in both trees, files should
be placed in the correct folder.
This is an alpha release, so it may be a little rough around the edges.
Nevertheless, I used it with great success to convert a very large and
deep folder tree.
Please, do backup your sylpheed (destination) folder tree before trying
this out. Live safe and die old!
This code is released in the public domain.
