Ok - so I understand that i cannot import a PSt file form outlook in Windows
mail.
Any chance I can import contacts from my old computer (XP/outlook) to my new
computer (Vista/Live mail).
Thanks,

Ludo

Export from Outlook as a CSV file. Windows Contacts can import that.
 
You can directly import a .pst file into Windows Mail, only if Outlook is
installed on the Vista computer.
 
Wrong understanding. You very definitely can import an Outlook .PST into
Windows Mail, you must, however, have Outlook installed and functional on
the PC doing the transfer. Outlook provides the MAPI "plumbing" that
Windows Mail requires to access the .PST file.
