I am not interested in importing the .pst file into Windows Mail. I am
trying to import it to the Vista Contacts folder. Vista Contacts however, has only
four import formats:
CSV (Comma Separated Values)
LDIF (LDAP server)
vCard (VCF file)
Windows Address Book file (Outlook Express contacts)
FYI, on your suggestion, I did import the contacts into Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail:
same results. The accented letters in names like Fernández, Pérez and Concepción are displayed as a symbol resembling a square.

Have you tried installing Outlook, copying the .pst file over, opening the.
.pst, and importing directly into Windows Mail?

I am trying to import my Outlook Contacts into the Vista Contacts folder.
Many of the Outlook Contacts have extended characters, e.g. á, é, í, ó,
ú, ñ, etc. The CSV file that I created from Outlook correctly displays
the accented letters and the Spanish "ñ" but when I import the contacts
into Vista Contacts, they display as gibberish.
Importing a vCard works but I have hundreds of contacts and I haven't
been able to save all of them as a single file. Saving and importing
them one at a time would take hours.
How does one import contacts with Spanish and French names?
