Default iMail Address Book Migration

Hello,
I have the need to transfer a few hundred imail address books over to zimbra. I have already transfered all of the emails over using imapsync with great success. Anyone have any tools or help?
Thanks,
Dan

sorry my tool only works with imail 5.x - 8.x
imail changed stuff after that version and i have not gotten around coding the new version. we dont use imail anymore so i doubt it i can support new versions.

* i am working with Zimbra - Forums - View Profile: vwsyncro for his imail migration. if that works then i will post info here.

Ok, I tried to find one in the imail directory but I couldn't, could it be stored under a different name other than address book?

under user folder it used to be called aliases.txt (yeah i know..some smart imail developer thinks..aliases = addressbook)
may be its still the same
or open all files under user folder you will see the addressbook

hi..you posted the REAL file
i had to delete the post.
it contained all the REAL users and other information which someone on the fourms can misuse.
* i see that imail is storing the addressbook in MS ACCESS format in your version.
i dont have a tool to convert that yet. i have you file as an example and will see what i can do.
please dont consider this post as YES i will do it, you should look for options how to do it too.
