Re: Importing Forte Agent messages and attachments to Outlook Express

I am new to XP and am looking for a way to import Forte Agent messages
and attachments into Outlook Express. I can import the messages by
saving all the Forte folders as Unix files, importing them into Eudora
3.06 and then importing from there into Outlook Express. But the
attachments are all lost - pictures show up as gibberish.

Does anyone know of a way to import the messages *and* the
attachments?

Thanks.

Gord, do the attachments show up properly in Eudora before the final import?
If so, a later version of Eudora might "upgrade" the imported mail files to
a form that lets the attachments survive.

Also, utilities like Aid4Mail and ABC Amber might help.
