Most unix/linux boxes have a built in executable called
unix2dos to do this exact conversion.

OK some answers...
Some of the messages you had in your folder were normally
delivered mail and some of the messages were popfetched with
Fetchmail. The normally delivered messages all had PC style
line termination (CRLF) and the popfetched messages had unix
style (LF) line termination.
Surgemail and webmail format is RFC style CRLF termination.
The messages that were popfetched were displayed without
date / subject/ address etc information in the list pane,
the normally delivered messages were displayed correctly.
The interesting thing is that I was initially testing it
with surgemail + webmail running on windows where the list
page is displayed with invalid message headers the first
time around but as soon as you go to the next page then back
to the previous page it displays correct info. With the
server running unix it does not autocorrect in any way.
Anyway, just make sure your imported messages are in the
right format.

Marijn,
I am putting them in the mdir directory.
I will send the messages directly to support.
Thanx,
Ray

Hi
Ah, no you should copy the messages in to surgemail's mdir
folders
(available from "tellmail path userdomain") so that webmail will download
the messages via IMAP to correctly update its index files
etc. If this is
what you are already doing, yes send us a couple of messages
(to
surgemail-supportnetwinsite.com offlist) and we'll take a
look to see what
is going on.

Marijn,
OpenWebmail uses the old mbox format and I did find a script
that will
convert them into mdir structure.
I copy the files into the "folders" created in
webmail and the change
permissions to "mail:mail".
In webmail, I navigate to the folder I created and I see all
of the messages
but with problems.
All messages show up with no subject and from address, date
and size are
showed correctly.
If you click on a message, the new window opens and it shows
the message
properly.
Once you close the message and refresh the folder it seems
to break all the
messages.
Once refreshed the from and subject now show up, but when
you click on the
message it's blank. It opens in the new window but has not
subject, name or
body.
Any thoughts? I can send you some of the converted emails
if you want to
test it.
Thanx,
Ray

Surgemail uses plaintext one file per message mdir structure
with no
embellishments in these text files. You can just drop
arbitrary files in the
surgemail mdir structure and surgemail should notice them
appropriately
handle them. I have no experience with openwebmail folder
structure but it
should not be too difficult to split these files and
reformat if necessary I
would have thought.

Subject: [SurgeMail List] Webmail Message import
Hi all,
Has anyone been able to successfully import maildir or
mailbox folders from
OpenWebMail into Surgemail?
I have mbox format messages that I need to import into
Surgemail's webmail.
Is anyone familiar with the file and directory structure
that Surgemail
uses?
Any advise would be appreciated.
Thanx,
