Reference—Windows:
Export/Import Tab-delimited window

This window, opened by the Export Tab-Delimited or Import Tab-delimited commands in the File menu, lets you select attributes to be exported/imported. By editing a plain text list, you can select attributes by name and set the field order for the tab-delimited file.

The scrolling text area contains a list of attribute names, one attribute per line. The order of the names sets the order that the fields in the tab-delimited file that will be created or imported. When importing, fields may be ignored by inserting blank lines in the list. To add, remove or reorder the names, use cut and paste.

Names in the list are in "plain English," as shown in the Attributes Reference window. In cases where ClickMail does not recognize the name, the actual name entered is used as the LDAP attribute name.

When opened, the list is set to what existed when the Export or Import button was last clicked. Optionally, commands in the Lists menu may be used to open and save lists themselves as text files, or paste a standard list, or paste a list of all attributes currently in the directory.

A checkbox, "Import Persons Only" or "Export Persons Only," filters the entries being imported/exported according their entry type (objectClass). When checked, only entries with entry type person (or emailPerson, organizationalPerson, inetOrgPerson, residentialPerson) are imported/exported. When exporting, entries with other types are not exported. When importing, entries with other types are ignored (and logged).
