I have just opened an email account with Road Runner, so I need to import my
addresses and messages into outlook (not outlook express). I exported my
files to my desktop. But now I can't import into Outlook.
HELP
There is a tricky way to move email from Earthlink Mailbox (part of Earthlink TotalAccess) to Outlook or Outlook Express. Maybe it'll work for RoadRunner as well?
1) Open Earthlink Mailbox.
2) Select all of the message in your Inbox (highlight them).
3) Click the Forward button to attach these emails to a message.
4) Save this email (with all it's attachments) into your Drafts folder. You will be prompted to save it there if you just click the "x to close it.
5) Open your Drafts folder, highlight the message you created, click "File" on the menu bar, and save the message as an EML file to some place you can find it.
6) Move this EML file to your new computer and open it.
7) Save all of the attachments to some place on your computer. (They will all be EML files)
8) Open Outlook or Outlook Express or RoadRunner.
9) Select all of the attachments in that EML you opened (they will be EML files as well) and
drag them into the Inbox in Outlook that you have open.
Poof! All of your messages will now be in Outlook!
Do a dance of joy.
