I followed this step from Importing Outlook Express Emails Into Thunderbird And Evolution - Page 3 (http://www.howtoforge.com/importing_outlook_express_into_thunderbird_evoluti on_p3):
In that directory you can find all mbox files from which you can import emails. There should be one mbox file for each mail folder you had in Outlook Express. These mbox files do not have an extension, so don't pick those .msf files you see there.
and clicked "Open". I did that above 3 hours ago and I'm still waiting. Evolution looks like hung, but hard disk is constantly working. I have ~2500 mails and file is ~850 MB big. File is copied from Thunderbird's profile on Windows, which imported mail from Microsoft Outlook.
Should I still wait or rather kill Evolution/restart computer and try another method of importing mail? Is it normal that it takes so long time?
