Hey all, just brought home my lovely new 20" Intel iMac with the 256mb video card. Can't wait to unpack it.

However, I used outlook to pull all my email off of my earthlink server with my current PC, and so I was wondering what the best way was to get all those emails onto my new mac in a compatible format. Then just import them into Mail.

I did this when I got my mini last year by using a program called DbxConv.

I too think that this is something that Apple should provide as a part of their utilities or Mail app. It is just way too painful to have to search all over and then do it manually.

Yea sorry I know I shoulda searched for it, but I'm so psyched about my new Mac! In fact, I'm typing this on it. Feels so good to be home, back on a mac.
