Kmail - Mail Importation Problem

[StarTAC]

hi all..

i've managed to import all my 15+ folders from a previous Outlook (or Look-Out ) mailbox to my Kmail Maildir/ setup on SuSE Linux 9.1 Pro..

but, there's this one folder that keeps failing to import, Sent_Items.. this folder has some 10,000+ messages.. but it always claims to have completed on the 1,738th message, during importation..

i've tried moving the messages within that area around, but it still fails.. all the other folders (with as many or more messages) moved fine, except this one..

anyone ever experienced this before, and can help..?..

all help appreciated..

How about forwarding all the messages to you new mailbox?

i need them to maintain the attributes (dates, times e.t.c).. forwarding may have the effect of having all mail seeming like it came from me..

when i try opening it with Pine (as Pine can read OLE .dbx files), it fails at some point while opening, claiming to be "Out of memory"...

i think this could be what's crashing Kmail.. anyone seen this before?

all help appreciated..
