Hi,

I do have an OX-Server (Community Edition) running under openSuse 10.3

While importing Contacts from my German MS Outlook (2000 as well as
2003), I encounter the problem, that only the "E-MAIL 2" entry is
imported into the OX contacts database

I create a CSV File of my contact data in outlook and choose to import a
csv in outlook format within OX.

During the import, I get the following error message:
Error code: Could not find the following fields [Position, Straße
geschäftlich 2, Straße geschäftlich 3, Straße privat 2, Straße privat 3,
Weitere Strafle 2, Weitere Straße 3, Benutzer 1, Benutzer 2, Benutzer 3,
Benutzer 4, Büro, E-Mail-Adresse, E-Mail-Typ, E-Mail: Angezeigter Name,
E-Mail 2: Typ, E-Mail 2: Angezeigter Name, E-Mail 3: Adresse, E-Mail 3:
Typ, E-Mail 3: Angezeigter Name, Empfohlen von, Geschlecht, Hobby,
Initialen, Internet-Frei/Gebucht, Konto, Ort, Postfach geschäftlich,
Postfach privat, Priorität, Privat, Regierungs-Nr., Reisekilometer,
Sprache, Stichwörter, Verzeichnisserver, Weiteres Postfach]
(I_E-0803,-297405692-97)


I set up a test entry at Outlook and filled all 3 e-mail addresses.

The first and the third are ignored during the import - the 2nd one is
imported as "private" e-mail address...


Finally, I think I found an error in "GermanOutlookMapper.java"
The Field which will be stored into "ContactField.EMAIL1" is named
"Abrechnungsinformationen" - but shouldn't be "E-Mail-Adresse"?

But even if I change the .CSV File so there is
"Abrechnungsinformationen" instead of "E-Mail-Adresse", the import goes
wrong...

And "E-Mail 3: Adresse " (shouldn't this be "E-Mail 3: Adresse" without
a space?) seems to be correct - but not imported...


If I rename the Fields "E-Mail-Adresse" and "E-Mail 3: Adresse" into
"Abrechnungsinformationen" and "E-Mail 3: Adresse ", the import is not
successfully and I get the message
"Error code: Could not find the following
fields:[Abrechnungsinformationen,E-Mail 3: Adresse ]
(I_E-0803,-297405692-330)"

But if I rename the E-Mail address fields in e.g. "Telex" and "Name
Assistent", the addresses are imported and shown on the 3rd Page of the
contacs information...

Could please someone help me out? I am driving nuts with this


Thanks

Dirk
