Jim,

I have an old, old script for importing AOL mail to Entourage (originally
written for Claris Emailer). I have no idea if AOL's file format has changed
since I wrote the script, which was circa 1996. If you'd like to try it, I
have converted it to use Entourage instead of Emailer; I tested it on some
old backup copies of my 1995 mail. It's very simplistic, and imports only
the major info like To, From, Subject, Date and Message. If you want to try
it let me know off list, and I'll send you a copy.

Paul Berkowitz's scripts for Export-Import Entourage can handle the Windows
Outlook mail. They are shareware; look on www.versiontracker.com.
