Many thanks!! The script rocks. I modified it to just test a single
user with a 700Meg spool. It converted everything in about 6 seconds.
There is only one problem that was easy to fix. There needs to be
double quotes around the $WD on line 7. This is 'cuz outlook users like
to put spaces in their folder names :-)
Cheers!
