How do i import hands from my yahoo e-mail?

[kdogmc]

I play at work every once in a while and I'd like to combine these hands into my main PT3 database. But I have to send a hand history to my yahoo e-mail. They're in text form and I don't know how to get them into my database.

thanks

The "Import from Email" is currently not functional in PokerTracker 3. We will be adding this feature in a future release.

You should be able to copy the hand histories from your email, open Notepad, and paste them into a text file. Save the text file then "Import From File(s)" under the Manual Import tab.

Best regards,

Derek

Looks pretty much like a normal hand history. Not sure if this will work but try removing the *********** # 1 ************** and if that doesn't do the trick, try to make sure that "PokerStars Game #15596938190: Hold'em No Limit ($0.50/$1.00) - 2008/02/27 - 19:49:42 (ET)" is on one line.

This needs to be a single line. Something changed the hand histories, making them invalid for import.

[kdogmc]

That made it work thanks.

If I accidentily try to get the files from yahoo e-mail twice ( like i forgot I have already uploaded them ) I see PT3 recognizes duplicates and won't place the same hand in my PT3 twice correct?

thanks for your help

[APerfect10]

That is correct although duplicates will slow down your import speed since we have to verify the hand against the database...

Best regards,

Derek
