How do I import the mailbox setup of folders from windows mail to Outlook?

[katy]

Is there a web page that I could use to import the folders in my Windows
Mail to Outlook 2007 somewhere? I am not sure what to do with the Import
feature, what to choose, etc. Thanks all...katy

Try File | Export | Messages in WinMail or File | Import | Messages in
Outlook.

You have to Export msgs from Mail (exchange type) to Outlook, which has to
be installed & configured on the same PC, outlook doesnt recognise Mail as
an import option

In Windows Mail, when I go to File/Export there is a choice to export
messages. Then it asks for Microsoft Exchange or Windows mail, do I choose
Exchange?

Ok, I decided to go ahead and export the messages using Microsoft Exchange
thanks to DL's hint (exchange type). It went very well. I had Outlook open
at the time, all set up.
But the export didn't bring the folders into Outlook like I thought. I went
to File/Import in Outlook and the choices are magnanimous.
I can choose 'Import from another program or file' and then next screen is
so confusing. What do I choose from the 'Select file type to import from:'
in order to get the folders I exported from Windows Mail. I sure hope I'm
not losing anything with this process

This is why I needed a web page that shows how to do this. It may be simple
for MVPs but I'm just a plain jane k

If you really mean "Outlook" you are in the wrong newsgroup.
The newsgroup to which you posted is for the Windows Mail program.
You are more likely to find Outlook experts in the Outlook newsgroup:

microsoft.public.outlook.general (via NNTP), or via the web:

Hello:

My name is Marc and I am wondering how to access my windows vista e-mail
from another outsidecomputer?
I use the same e-mail address for aol mail as I do for windows vista mail.
When I delete messages from my aol e-mail, it does not delete the windows
vista e-mail. I have to go in and do it manually on the Vista e-mail.

Thanks,

Marc

You can access AOL mail from anywhere by going to
http://mail.aol.com .

You can keep your AOL webmail and your AOL account in Windows Mail
synchronized by setting it up as an IMAP (rather than POP3) account:
