OE is Microsoft software. If I remember, it is free, but not included by Apple in any Mac OS installation. > What I would like to do is to have an os x version of OE and just move my > identities.

But I think Entourage only comes in Office X, where it is sort of tied into the the other programs (uses Word's spell checking, etc.). > I have a several different mailboxes (not accounts) in OE and a lot of rules > to sort the mail into the various mailboxes.

I don't think Mail will import accounts, because I don't think that even Entourage imported accounts from OE. I think I remember writing all the OE account info down and re-entering it for Entourage. I doubt that Mail will import the OE folder structure and rules. I am sure that Entourage will. I know I had folders and rules in my OE, beginning years ago, and I still have them in Entourage. For instance, my Saved Mail folder has OE messages in it from 1995!
