First of all a google search http://tinyurl.com/4qkpb Some promising results # http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-mini/Outlook-to-Unix-Mailbox.html #. http://columba.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/index.php/Importing%20Mail # http://www.emailman.com/conversion/index.html # puggy.symonds.net/~sriniram/bookmarks/dir/projects/Outlook2UNIX/Outlook2UNIX.php # http://mbx2mbox.sourceforge.net/ I stopped using windows with redhat 9. Thats when I discovered evolution as a replacement for MS Outlook Express ( ships with IE ). I had around 4000 emails, which I was able to import to Evolution. It was not done directly, first converted OEs dbx format to mbox and then into evolution. Thunderbird was not an option then. It worked fine but can't say that for sure as never bothered to check each email. but can be done, has been done but ymmv. Another interesting piece i remember was by ESR, he helped his wife migrate to linux from windows, but can't locate the url. If your googling skills are better try that out as well. regards Akash ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
