Hi,<div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>In bringing a user over from Windows, I ended up with her old mail from Outlook in .pst format. I loaded this onto a spare machine, loaded everything into Outlook, then imported into Thunderbird. Moved a test mailbox onto my Mac, renamed with .mbox suffix and attempted to import to Mail. The results are confusing:</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>- in the generated Import folder, it gets the names right, but shows only the first message.</div><div>- raw source shows all messages and attachments embedded as text in one message</div><div>- same for viewing the .emlx files in the Finder</div><div>- (that is to say, all messages are living in just the one .emlx file)</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>Back to the PC and imported Outlook data to Eudora, copied to my test Mac and imported .mbx files into Mail:</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>- messages are properly separated, multiple emlx files created</div><div>- attachments are embedded as text in separate messages</div><div>- message formatting is not interpreted- it shows html and other gibberish in normal view<br><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"><div>I get the sense that there's a step or two that I'm missing (like converting carriage returns or something- tried, didn't work), but I'm running out of clever ideas and google is giving all manner of conflicting information.</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>Thanks for any assistance,</div><div> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Lucida Grande; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Lucida Grande; font-size: 10px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"></span></font><div style="font-size: 10px; "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">Ned</span></font></div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"></span></font></span></span> </div><br></div><div> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Lucida Grande; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Lucida Grande; font-size: 10px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><div style="font-size: 10px; "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">Ned Parsons</span></font></div><div style="font-size: 10px; "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">IT Coordinator-HST</span></font></div><div style="font-size: 10px; "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;">3-4433</span></font></div><div style="font-size: 10px; "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"><a href="mailto:nedp@mit.edu">nedp@mit.edu</a></span></font></div><div style="font-size: 10px; "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"><br class="khtml-block-placeholder"></span></font></div><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 12px;"><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"></span></font></span></span> </div><br></body></html>
