3. Outlook Express For Mac 10.5.8

Microsoft Outlook 16.27 for Mac is available as a free download on our application library. This Mac download was checked by our antivirus and was rated as safe. The software is included in Developer Tools. This Mac application is an intellectual property of Microsoft Corporation. Moving emails from Outlook Express to Mac OS X. If you use Outlook, you could try importing all the mail in your.pst file into Outlook Express first and then copying the.dbx files into the folder after that. Open a DOS prompt window (Start Menu Programs Accessories DOS Prompt) or click on Run in the Start Menu, type in ‘cmd’ and press enter.

Wow, that's quite a lot of work.
I used a program called DbxConv. This program converts Outlook Express mailboxes (dbx) to the format used by Apple's Mail (mbox).
For me, the whole proces took about 10 minutes!

Thanks for the info. I also gave the utility a try and as far as I can tell, the utility does the same job. Yes, it was a lot of work doing it via Entourage; I wish I came across this utility earlier (I searched in Google but missed this one).
I had a small hitch either with the utility or Apple Mail--Apple Mail imported my Inbox.mbx (1030 msgs) as 1 big msg. So I imported instead into Entourage and it worked properly there; then I used Entourage to generate the mbox to import to Mail.

Hey this seems like a great idea. This is what I tried doing, but it did not work. I downloaded DbxConv. Since the DbxConv was a WinZip file, I extracted it to a new folder on the desktop. I went to the New Folder on the desktop and I saw the file in there DbxConv.exe. I coppied a outlook email file to the New Folder next to DbxConv.exe. I went to msdos and I typed in dbxconv *.dbx, and then I get a message saying: 'bdxconv is not recognized as an internal or external command.' I dont know if I am doing something wrong or what is happening. If you ave any information to give me please do. I would really appriciate that. My e mail address is goran_nanic@yahoo.com. Once agin if you have any information on this please let me know.
Thank you..

The conversion utility DOES look a lot simpler.
Q. Does anyone know of a way to convert mail from Outlook 2001 (not Express) on OS 9 to Entourage X? There is no 'Outlook for OS X' client that I'm aware of.
The Microsoft 'official' way is to upload the Outlook (mac) data to the Exchange Server and then re-download it to Entourage--not practical for some of our graphics folks who have a lot of attachments. It is taking 2-3 mins per MB on a 100BaseT network and Outlook 2001 (OS 9 only) crashes with more than 2-3 MB at a time.
Are there any utilities out there to do this Mac-to-Mac without using the Exchange Server?

The simplest way for that is still to used what is on the Switch pages on apple.com: use the free 60 day .Mac account.
You just create the account, configure it in Mail and Outlook PC, from Outlook, copy your email to the .Mac account then in Mail copy them back on your Mac. Done.

To import in 10.3, just take all the mail, drop it in entourage, then seperate it how u want into different folders, then open Mail, go to import mailboxes, click Microsoft Entourage, then click mailboxes. This will cause Mail to search Entourage's mailboxes. When it is done searching, click the mailboxes you want to import and then click ok. In about two to three minutes (maybe more if u have more messages) all ur emails will be in a new folders under the import folder in Mail. (when u use this way u don't need to mess around with the view option)

I don't have an IMAP server that works, because I have over 250MB of email, and more than 5,550 messages. How would I transfer the mail to my mac? DbxConv didn't work -- for some reason it removed all the attachments.
Also, is there a way to bring it back to my PC if Mail.app doesn't end up working with such a large volume of email?

I will describe, how I did that. Short background - I came to another country to study with all my PC-created documents on a CD. On that CD I also wrote my old Outlook Express (.dbx format) files thinking that I would be able to install on a new computer that I planned to buy. I bought PowerBook. In addition I decided not to use Apple Mail (too tiny characters when I type my reply) and move to Thunderbird instead. This is how I got all my mailboxes into Thunderbird. The intermediate steps include Entourage>Apple Mail. So whoever likes any of these programs may stop at earlier stage.
1. On a PC I converted my all dbx format mailboxes into mbx. Use the program dbxconv which is here described earlier. It runs from DOS and all you have to do is to type 'dbxconv inbox.dbx' if you want to convert file called inbox.dbx. Just make sure that the program is on the same folder with the files. It makes the task easier. Then transfer all converted files to Mac. I used CD-RW drive on the PC.
2. Copy all converted files on your mac and change their extension from mbx to mbox.
3. Drag and drop the newly created .mbox files to entourage. Entourage immediately understands what you want and asks if you want to import. Press 'yes' and it is done.
4. Close Entourage. Open Apple Mail and through File>Import mailboxes do what it asks. It is pretty simple from there. Now you can open all imported mailboxes and allow Mail to index and do whatever it wants. Am not sure if that is essential but I did it.
5. In finder open your Library from there Mail>Mailboxes. Copy all the mailboxes and paste them, eg, to your desktop.
6. ctrl click on mailbox. Click Show Package Contents. There you will find a file called simply mbox. Copy this file to the following directory Home>Library>Thunderbird>Profiles>******.default>mail>local folders. And rename the file to whatever you want to call the mailbox.
7. Open your Thunderbird and see the mailbox there. The step 6 has to be done separately for each mailbox so I hope you don't have too many :-)
The most problematic in all this in case you (like me) don't want to support Microsoft, is where to get MS office or Entourage. You will have to think creatively here :-)

For example, you can use a single node to apply a color map of bricks to an object and then use it again to align a bump map, creating realistic-looking mortar between rows of bricks.Start with a Great ScriptMaya lets you access commands through Marking Menus, which appear in a circular fashion under the mouse pointer when you press a hot key. Like all tools in Maya, menus and hot keys are based on the objectoriented Maya Embedded Language (MEL) and are completely customizable. Maya for mac free.

I found the suggestion posted by pochrox to be the best by far for converting OE files for use in Entourage and Mail on Mac. However, on OS10.3.7 and Entourage from Office 2005 for Mac, the files went directly into the new subfolder after having dragged and dropped them from the saved PC OE files on my Mac desktop. They did not create separate folders for each message, they transfered directly as new unread messages. End of story. I was delighted and I could not have done it had you not enumerated the steps to make it possible. The discovery that the messages needed no further processing after dropping them into the Entourage sub-folder was a final delight. Thank you!

this is the easy way: http://people.freenet.de/ukrebs/dbxconv.html

sorry somebody already said that, I should read more before posting, sorry again

Just to give credit where it's due, I found today that someone has posted a similar hint earlier than the one I posted above (it's not exactly the same, but close). It's at http://www.oreillynet.com/cs/user/view/cs_msg/9928. Well, I guess this wasn't the first time it was discovered. Thanks to everyone for sharing your tips and for the kind words as well!

Today I transferred email from Outlook Express 6 on Windows 2000 Professional SP4 to OS X Tiger's Mail.app. This is how I did it.
1. Download and install Mozilla Thunderbird. Current version is 1.5.0.7.
2. Launch and choose to import from Outlook Express. (Clean up the Outlook email and empty the trash first.)
3. Copy the mail folder to the mac from the Thunderbird profile folder. I used a FAT32 formatted USB drive.
4. Add .mbox to all the files inside the mail folder you just copied that don't already have an extension. I used A Better Finder Rename for this.
5. Launch Mail.app and choose import from the File menu.
6. Select Netscape/Mozilla and go!
I hope this helps someone, because I had trouble following all the other tutorials. And I hope someone who goes thru this process fills in all the little details that I left out (such as the default directory of the mozilla profiles folder and the extension of the mozilla mail index, etc.)

Outlook Express For Mac

That hint was absurdly tedious.
Here's what I did yesterday using IMAP email to accomplish the same:
1. Created a temporary email account with your ISP,
3. Created a folder structure in that account that mimicked the end-user's structure,
3. Setup an IMAP account in Outlook Express to point to the temp email account,
4. Copied the messages from the OE In Box and other folders to the same places in the IMAP account,
5. Setup in OS X Mail the ability to retrieve the IMAP mail,
6. Drag the messages to a local folder structure,
7. Delete the IMAP account and settings on the Mac and PC that pointed to it.
Far less tedious. Only have to be patient enough to allow your emails to upload then download on IMAP.

Microsoft Outlook Express For Mac

You can drag and drop batches of MS Outlook .msg files from a Windows machine to MailRaider. It reads them and identifies attachments. Unfortunately, it seems to only save 1 message at a time, which is a pain.

Outlook Express For Mac 10.5.8

I wonder if it would work, but if you missconfigure your incoming mail server in Outlook (so it does not download your mail automaticaly), and resend yourself all you saved mail and download it in to your mac, you would have the messages transfered without any other software.
