Export/Import Mail Rules

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Power PC
Email Client: pop

I've just upgraded to Entourage 2008 and have a lot of rules in 2004 version. Is there anyway to export all of my rules out of 2004 and import them into 2008? This should be a feature. Hope I've just not seen it.
Thanks for your help.

You can't do this with Entourage import, but you can Option drag over the
rules file to your Entourage 2008 Identity. You'll have to open each rule
and reset the folder destinations. Be sure you are working Offline when you
do this or mail will be going to a lot of wrong folders.

You can also take screenshots to help recreate your rules.
