Hello Brien,

 You did better than I did. I never figured out the carriage return
 part. I did have to rename the fields in the CSV file, otherwise the
 actual email part of the address was missing because the field name
 was "email address", not just "email".
 Then after the import I noticed all those extra entries with just a
 part of a phone number, address, whatever.. I was, to say the least a
 little PISSED, frustrated, etc. and I had to take MORE time to delete
 those entries, figure out which contacts were missing the info, and
 add the info back. Not fun, not nice, and not what I expected.
 definitely a sore point for me, and my fellow outlook/eudora users
 trying to move their data.
