Finally convinced wife to switch from Windows to Mac. New machine should be here early next week, and I need to migrate her Email.

She was using Outlook (2003) until the PST file just got way too big. She saves everything. Her mail client is her virtual file cabinet for her project work. Outlook started choking when the mailbox got to about 1.2 GB.

Knowing she didn't want to delete anything, I switched her over to Thunderbird. I left her Outlook installation in place, and didn't import anything. I figured she could use Outlook as an "old projects" file cabinet.

Now I'm going to be faced with trying to import both Outlook and Thunderbird mail into Mac Mail.

Eudora Mailbox Cleaner looks like it should do a nice job with the Thunderbird mail.

O2M looks like it should handle the Outlooks stuff.

Has anyone out there tried either of these? What kind of luck did you have? Better yet, has anyone tried importing both to the same Mac Mail install?

Thanks.
