Hey All,

I have just purchased my first Mac. After 14 years as a windows user, I can't believe I have actually purchased a Macbook Pro, and I am loving it. I can't believe how well this thing performs. i did have the keyboard lock issue, but the update ti 10..5.2 fixed that.

Now for the question... I have searched all 5 million corners of the net and don't have an answer, so I am hoping you might help.

Is there a way on gods good earth to get my mail from my Outlook 2003 to Entourage 2008??? All my mail and contacts are what I really need!!

Any help would be great!!

Cheers

Thanks for the reply.

You know I found a similar answer about 30 seconds after I posted and am in the middle of importing from Thunderbird. I will let you know how it goes.

I'm trying to solve the same issue but through using Mail rather than Entourage... here's what I've tried:

1) Tried importing the Thunderbird files by adding a .mbox to them

2) http://www.macosxhints.com/article.p...40609231712503 and "cleaned up the files from Thunderbird and tried importing.

3) Tried http://tantannoodles.com/2007/02/12/...ok-into-a-mac/

The problems I get:

Both 1) and 2) result in some folders importing into Mail with no emails in them, even though they contain[ed] several messages in Outlook (and Thunderbird); i.e., the files aren't 0KB in size. (Akin to using http://www.riches.com.au/articles/ex...-entourage.htm)

3) fails with an error, likely the result of my using Outlook 2003. (There's a blurb about "Are you using Outlook 2003?" when the script is run.)

So... any ideas or has anyone found a solution to these issues?

I just posted on another thread about this not 2 minutes ago. Here's the link...

MS Outlook .pst file -> Mail program

This was in reference to a question about emails, but O2M also does Contacts at the same time.
