Hello, everybody, and thanks for all your help! The cause of the
problem was in fact a different one: TB was registered as the default
mail client, and Outlook was not. Making Outlook the default mailer
fixes the problem. The import went rather smoothly then, with the
exception of two OLE errors (8004010F and 80040115) that subsequently
caused TB to crash. I was able to fix this by deleting the message,
using Outlook, that followed immediately after the last message the Bat was able to 
import in the
respective folder. Then I had to re-boot Windows because of the access
violation and was able to re-import the folder without any trouble.

Regards,
Armin
