Well, the "draer-thing" came to my mind cause one can e.g. drop old WBStartup to WBStartup-prefs and everything is imported.
Thanks for the hint with joinging files. comment:3 Changed 18 months ago by damato

I will accept that ticket as it makes sense. However, importing a whole directory will not be considered as you can perfectly select all files in the directory with one keyboard shortcut in an ASL requester which IMHO is a more safe approach as you might accidently select a whole directory and click "Accept" and see YAM ending up in trying to important all your files in C: or LIBS: or whatever.
Also note that you might simply concatenate all your *.eml or *.mbx files to one single file and the give it to YAM. It will then extract all mails in it. So as a temporary workaround you can do it like that until we have the time to implement your enhancement request.
