Thunderbird, archive part of a large agenda?
by Herve5 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6FHYF)
Hello,
We have been using Thunderbird for a couple dozen years here, with constant publishing/subscribing family & friends-wide. All of this may look simple and naive, but we are reaching a stage where the super-old agenda exports near 1Mb, which is definitely problematic both for transfers (it seems ftp now fails?) and even, now, parsing.
Of course everyone wants to maintain its own archive, nobody wants to change urls, etc.
At this moment I'm considering asking them to 'stop here' and restart some 'myagenda2' which would become the only published one.
Instead of launching all this irreversible stuff, I would have preferred 'just saving all old events to a kind of archive' similar to what we do for mail files, but I don't really see a way to do this on Thunderbird.
Would you have some advice on this?
TIA!
Herve
