Migrating a Mail Archive from Mbox to IMAP
Monday, 20 June 2005
It's been several years that I store all my email in Kmail. It used to be Outlook back in 2000, but I soon got fed up and converted to a Linux box where the .pst format was quite useless. I used a nifty utility to do the conversion on a Windows box, and everything worked just fine.

Now it's time to move again. This server has a new IMAP implementation that polls my POP3 provider every minute, performs filtering, then allows me to connect from anywhere. That's very usable, especially considering that I always run the email client at home and it would be quite annoying not to be able to read home email during the day.

Problem: None of the current email clients know how to move a repository to IMAP. Oddly enough, Outlook can do it no problem, while the open source world entirely ignores the problem. That's quite silly, since a conversion utility is quite easy to write.

Adding RSS awareness to your site

I just figured out how to make my site have the neat [RSS] box that Firefox displays to indicate your site has an RSS feed available.

It's actually very simple: you just have to go to the Administrator screen. There, in Modules, select Syndicate. In Syndicate, look to the right and click on Parameters.

Newsflash

We made it! After a solid week of riding, 2000+ cyclists from all walks of life reached Los Angeles, yours truly one of many amongst them. It was amazing, an experience quite impossible to forget, almost a little life of its own.

Funny thing is, I still can't stop talking about it. Everyone I see gets treated to a first hand account of the ride, because so much of what I am thinking about right now is just the last week and all the things that happened.

Really, if you want to treat yourself to an experience quite unlike any other one you've had - try AIDS LifeCycle. I am not saying it's going to be easy, I am not saying it's going to be just fun. Somewhere between the atrocious coffee, the face caked in mud made of sweat and road dust, and the smell of port-a-pits you'll hate anyone that ever suggested you partake. But I guarantee, once it's over, you'll talk about it until your grandchildren reach retirement age.
