Martin,
I notice you say importing your files into Apple Mail, rather than
exporting them from Claris and wonder how you do that (step by step)
and why you worked that way round?
Also the Recipient in Claris shows as *S Emailer_talk Martin P
It doesn't show the date or From and To as it does in Claris.
