Package: Evolution
Priority: Normal
Version: 1.0.5.99
Synopsis: Importing a Mozilla addressbook
Bugzilla-Product: Evolution
Bugzilla-Component: Importers

Description:
Description of Problem:

I've found it impossible to directly import a Mozilla addressbook. I
need to use Mozilla to save my addressbook as an LDIF file and then
import it in Evolution. If Mozilla crashed, as it did today which is
what prompted me to use Evolution, then I don't have an addressbook
backedup as LDIF !

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Use the File->Import->Other files option
2. Select LDIF
3. Select the file

Actual Results:

I've found it impossible to directly import a Mozilla addressbook. I
need to use Mozilla to save my addressbook as an LDIF file and then
import it in Evolution. If Mozilla crashed, as it did today which is
what prompted me to use Evolution, then I don't have an addressbook
backedup as LDIF !

Expected Results:


How often does this happen?

Everytime

Yes, at the moment you can only import Mozilla's addressbook as an LDif
