That's right. Some people keep Entourage at its default (is that about 8
MB)? That's way too low even for normal use if you have 3000 contacts and/or
thousands of messages. Give it 15MB or more. And for the import, that would
be much too low: 2 or 3 times the default may not be enough. Give it 30 or
40 or whatever you've got available (the more the faster, aside from not
crashing). Then you can put it back to 15+ MB.
