I worked with Entourage X and wanted to try the standard Mail program that
came with my new eMac. I tried it for several weeks, and now I realice I
prefer Entourage X. Is there a way I can import the messages I already have
in Mail to Entourage X?

When I switched from an iBook to an eMac, I have succesfully transfered the
contacts list from my previous Entourage X. However, I cannot transfer yet
the messages in the eMAc from the Mail to Entourage. Can anybody share a way
to do so?

Thanks

1. Double-click the Import from Mail script in the following folder:
Microsoft Office X CD/Value Pack/Utilities/Import from Mail.



2. When the script is finished, click OK



3. Now simply start Entourage as usual. Your imported messages are in the
Import from Mail folder under On My Computer.



You must (re-)apply the Office 10.1.2 Updater, and any subsequent
updaters
(10.1.4, 10.1.5), AFTER installing Import from Mail from the Value
Pack on
the CD. You only get the updated (new replacement) Import from Mail
script
if you first install it from the Value Pack, then apply 10.1.2.

You
absolutely need the updated script if you are in Jaguar (OS 10.2.x).
Apple
moved the location of the Mail mailboxes in Jaguar so only the new
script
can find them.

Thanks a lot for your response, it worked very well. Is there a way I can do
a backup in a CD of all my messages?

Just backup your Identity folder to CD. Of course, the size will determine
if it fits.
