Just copy the EML files from the message store and drag then into an OE
folder.

Export only exports to Outlook or another Exchange program.

Both Outlook and OE/WM must be installed and functional on the machine being
used to do the transfer. The import/export process both OE and WM use
require some of Outlook's files in order to access a .PST file; likewise for
Outlook which must use some of OE//WM's files to access messages in those
stores (.DBX files for OE). The MAPI error you see means WM can't find the
Outlook files it needs.
