Well, I'm not a gusy, but the easy way in Jaguar 10.2 is just to go to the File menu and choose Import. I made a script to do it in 10.1 "Export to Mail" in Export-Import Entourage X (<http://www.applescriptcentral.com/>), which could be easily adjusted for OE. I believe that the location of the Mailboxes has changed in 10.2 so it would need to be adjusted, but i haven't seen the need since it can be done more quickly from the Import menu item.
If there's some reason why you particularly want to do it by script, write me privately and I'll send you the code for that script (which is run-only at the website). -- Paul Berkowitz > From: Steve Sadler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Reply-To: "Mac Outlook Express Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Wed, 16 Oct 2002 13:53:15 +0100 > To: "Mac Outlook Express Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: OE Addresses > > any of you gusy knwo how to export addresses from Entourage/OE into > Apples Mail Program??? > > Steve > > On Wednesday, October 16, 2002, at 06:06 AM, It's Stace Bass wrote: > >> oh, thank you, thank you, thank you --- >> will try all this great secret advice >> OE is great when it works - it just isn't powerful enough for large >> databasses and sorting. >> >> paul - you rock! >> >> >> S t a c e B a s s! >> MEOW - Entertainment Publicity, PR, Promotion and Consultation >> http://home.earthlink.net/~stacesaysmeow >> Los Angeles - Orlando >> and your friends with Michael Andrew and Swingerhead >> http://www.Swingerhead.com - fan site >> http://www.MichaelAndrew.com - agent friendly site >> >>> From: Paul Berkowitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >>> Reply-To: "Mac Outlook Express Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >>> Date: Tue, 15 Oct 2002 20:52:01 -0700 >>> To: Mac Outlook Express Talk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >>> Subject: Re: OE Addresses >>> >>> On 10/15/02 7:53 PM, "It's Stace Bass" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >>> wrote: >>> >>>> Hello all.
