Then just access the same IMAP account from your Mac. You may or may not want to drag messages to local folders in Entourage (or you can just go on using the same IMAP account), but there's no 5 MB limit - everything's already all there on the IMAP server. > > Option 2: > Or stay tuned for Paul Berkowitz's new scripts.

But that's not really an "OR", it's an "AND". The scripts won't move messages or folders. But they will transfer all those other items. Let me know if you're interested in trying them out. -- Paul Berkowitz -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
