merging from OE to Outlook

[AJS]

Hello,
I'd like to merge from OE to outlook.
How do I transfer the messages so that the little "reply" and "forward"
arrows will show in Outlook?
Thanks,
AJS

You can import while in Outlook using the File menu > Import & Export
command but I don't think the reply/forward status transfers but it's been a
long time since I mucked around with OE -> Outlook stuff.

If you import the msgs all the mofified dates will be set to the Import
date.
Better in OE to Export to OL, that retains dates & 'maybe' other settings

Thanks,
but I still don't know how to include the reply and forward arrows.
Does anybody knows?

It could very well be impossible. When you transfer the messages from OE to
OL, OL probably won't know to which you've replied and which you've
forwarded. That information is likely not part of the transported data.

Thanks,
So what exactly will transfer? How about message rules, accounts, server
settings, will all this transfer?

You can transfer accounts (which includes server settings), messages,
contacts, and addresses.
