How do i import mail from Entourage to Outlook?

[Guest]

Hi,
I currently have my e-mails, calendar and contacts stored in Microsoft
Entourage on my Mac and I would like to import them all into Outlook XP as I
will not be using the Mac for very much longer.
If anyone has any suggestions, they would be much appreciated. Most of the
advice so far has been to export from Entourage as an Mbx file, but these
cannot be imported into Outlook, so I'm a bit stuck.
Thanks,
Karen

There are a few AppleScripts by Paul Berkowitz that you can find at:

http://scriptbuilders.net/category.php?search=Export-Import+Entourage+X

These scripts are $20US, and there are manual ways to do this, but please,
please, please believe me that these scripts will save you a LOT of
aggravation and time.

Hi Len,

Thanks very much for this. I have tried these scripts (downloaded
yesterday) and can export messages as mbox files but they cannot be imported
into Outlook XP.

Is there anything else you can sugest.

Thanks for taking the time to help me Len.

Karen.

Hi Karen,

Well, if you're just looking at email, it might work out very easily for you
if you were to redirect them to yourself using Entourage and then catching
them in Outlook. That would be the easiest. I'm guessing you're not using
an Exchange server with Entourage, so this would definitely be the fastest
way to do this.

Hi Len,

Hope you had a happy thanksgiving also. Thanks for your good wishes. I was
only looking at e-mail as I had successfully imported my contacts and
calendar! I decided to go your route - forwarding each one - and the job is
now done.

Thanks very much for your time and help.

Take care,

Happy holidays! Have a lovely Christmas,

Karen
