From Outlook to MS Mail

[Bob Peek]

I stored all my old Outlook files and folders in an archive file named
archive.pst but when I try to import them into my Microsoft Mail program I
get just error messages and no import. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

You can't directly import a .pst file. Outlook has to be installed on the
Vista computer first.

I have Outlook installed and I have the same problem reported by Bob Peek.
The way I found to import my contacts from Outlook to Windows Mail was
through sync with my mobile phone.

You have both Outlook and Windows Mail installed and functional, you go to
'File|Import|Messages', select "Microsoft Outlook", and click OK and what
happens then? If you get an error message, what does it say?
