ADGNUMAILCONVERTER(1) Convert GNUMail addresses to Addresses format

SYNOPSIS

adgnumailconverter [filename]

DESCRIPTION

adgnumailconverter converts old GNUMail addresses to Addresses format.

The program uses the following heuristic to split GNUMail's name field into Addresses's first/last name fields:

1.
Name contains a ",": Split it at the "," and put the first part into last name and the second part into first name.


        "Mueller, Fritz" -> "Mueller", "Fritz"

2.
Name doesn't contain a ",": Split it at spaces and put the last part into last name and everything else into first name.


        "Johnny B. Goode" -> "Goode", "Johnny B."

OPTIONS

adgnumailconverter only takes the filename of the GNUstep address book to convert (usually ~/GNUstep/Library/GNUMail/AddressBook).
