Re: importing emails from Windows
Hello, It depends upon what Windows email client being used? There are plenty of guides on the web. If you use a client that uses mbox files you simply use a USB storage device to transfer the files across. Or even zip them up and email them across. If you are using something like Outlook which uses .pst files then you need to export them to mbox format. But you don't need an app just to copy files across. Then use the import option of Apple's mail app. HTH Gena On 29/03/2013 19:29, Lisette Wesseling wrote: Hi folks, wondering if anybody has used any kind of app to import emails from a Windows machine onto the mac?

RE: importing emails from Windows
Hi Lisette, What email program are you using? I was able to import all my mail without too much trouble.

Re: importing emails from Windows
Hi List, I have e-mails in OE that I would like to import if possible. If this is possible, what are the steps and format things need to be in, in order to be read by my MacBook Pro? What about Favorites from IE. If someone could tell me what needs to be done, after connecting my external drive, it'd be greatly appreciated! Running Windows XP Home with Service Pack 3 on one desktop and another laptop. Got another Toshiba laptop running Win 7 64 byte Home Premium Edition.
