The export feature in OE is only for exporting to Outlook.

If you wish to get your messages from OE into WinMail, then copy the message
store directory to a local directory on the hard drive and make sure no
files are read only. The directory must contain folders.dbx. Then use
File | Import | Messages in WinMail and point to that directory. See also
