Default How to import emails from Netscape to zimbra

I have 30gb of emails in Netscape mail. I want to import those emails to my zimbra web client. How to import it? Is there any tools like ZCSPST import?

I just migrated my IMAP mailbox to ZCS by using Zimbra desktop. I had significantly less e-mail than you (bout 250megs), so this might not be the most sensible route for you.

1) Import all mail from your old account with the Zimbra Desktop Import wizard. It creates a tar.gz file in your desktop machine file system.

2) Remove the old IMAP account from Zimbra Desktop.

3) Create the new Zimbra account.

4) Export the imported tar.gz file to your new account. Oddly enough, there is no progress bar or any other feedback than ok/fail in this case.

In my case the old and new e-mail accounts had the same address.

Email Archiving and Compliance Software: MailStore

Their home version of the product is free. You can use it archive mail from a huge number of sources including mail stored in the mbox format, which is what I believe Netscape uses.
