Re: How to import Mac Mail into Entourage v.X?

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Hi Martin,
you'll need to use your Office installer disk to do this. You can find the
instructions here:
http://www.entourage.mvps.org/import_export/another.html
I remember that this import method did not work for me when I was still
using Entourage v.X (as a matter of fact, the import into Entourage 2004
doesn't work properly, either), so if the method described on the above
website does not work, try the following method to get your e-mail into
Entourage:

Note, however, that this method does not transfer any rules or account
settings.
