Can't get my email addresses from "Mail" into "Entourage."

PC

Anybody know why I can't move my email addresses from "Mail" into
"Entourage" by following the prescribed process? Even the "geniuses"
at the Apple Store could not figure it out and suggested I post the
question
on this site.

Help!

You wouldn't be moving them from Mail; you'd be moving them from Apple's
Address Book.

If converting an address in the Address Book to a vCard and importing the
vCard into Entourage isn't working won't work, you might try this script:

If you are using Tiger, go to the Apple mail, drag the folders to the
desktop as .mbox folder, inside this folder there is an "info plist"
file and a " messages" folder. Inside each message is listed as an
..emlx file ( message1.emlx).
Go to the harddrive/applications/automator
select the email from the folder on the desktop, drag and drop into the
automator window
under action- choose rename finder items
from drop down window choose "dont add"
in Section 2, choose replace text, in find type emlx in the replace
type eml
go to workflow in the mail menu bar and choose run
now drag and drop the selected email from the desktop into Entourage.

Entourage cannot read emlx file extentions

True enough, but he's actually trying to move contacts from Address Book,
not mail messages from Mail.
