Need to convert Outlook PST file for MS Mail

[Wayne Perrier]

My wife just got a new laptop; her old computer has Outlook on it and she's
been using that for email for a number of years. The new machine only has MS
Mail. We would like to transfer the .pst file to the new computer and use
that with MS Mail. So far I have found no way to import it to MS Mail. Help
!

thanks.

Your new machine has WINDOWS mail (MS Mail was something that came out with
Windows 3.1 AFAIK!)

You need to do the following:
On the OLD machine, import the mail and contacts into Outlook Express.

Then look here:

Hello Wayne Perrier,

Please follow the steps

outlook>file>import>messages>choose outlook and follow the wizard.

Before you import the outlook data you have to export the outlook data
from one computer to another.

let me know the status ( (e-mail address removed))

Hello Wayne Perrier,

I'm not Wayne Perrier - why did you reply to me?

He was just replying to the most recent message in the thread. Fairly
common USENET practice.

Fairly common

but incorrect

I'll disagree.

I'll disagree.

You must have some very odd conversations then.....

Conversations and USENET threads bear no resemblance to one another.
