Ooutlook Express to Outlook 2003

[Randy Starkey]

Hi,

What is the best way to convert all my OE mail and contacts to Outlook 2003?
I understand the importer changes all the email time stamps to the day of
the import? Why in the world would it do that? <g> Anyway, if anyone knows
the details on this, I'd sure appreciate it! I have some pretty big OE files
too...

Use Outlook Express to export all messages to Outlook, then use Outlook to
import addresses from Outlook Express. OE's export function does a better
job with messages than Outlook's import function, while Outlook's import
function does a better job with addresses than does OE's export function.

OK. Thanks!

Use Outlook Express to export all messages to Outlook, then use Outlook to
