Export all MailBoxes and associated folders to one mbox file?

Hi Benny,

Any update on this? I think it is really two questions:
1. Am I doing something wrong or are the mbox exports folder by folder?
2. If they are folder by folder do you have any recommendation for getting something like the workflow I highlighted in my original note?

And probably an additional question:
3. If not, is that workflow available with one of the other products integrated with mailmate like eaglefiler or Devonthink?

Thanks!

Sorry about the late response.

If I remember correctly then it's possible to automate integration with MailSteward as follows. Use a rule in MailMate, e.g., on your Inbox or your Archive mailbox to run a command which exports emails to a specific folder (Run Command > Export to Folder). Then configure MailSteward to watch this folder and automatically import (and delete I think?) the emails in the folder.

I hope that helps.

Thanks!

In my initial testing it doesn't have the exact same name for the containing folder, rather it has the name of the directory enclosing the mbox. So, less integrated but it should be doable (a tiny bit more fiddling to confirm.) It looks like eaglefiler is similar - the process is folder by folder and I have to select things(?).

For what it's worth, I put in a feature request with mailsteward to develop a mailmate bundle to emulate what they do with apple mail - any other mailsteward users, please do that too :-).

If you have any sugeestions for tools that will do a full archive of all my mail providers and folders please let me know.

Thanks!
