Outlook (Windows) to Entourage 2008

[thegoldenmackid]

Hello,

I have a client I am setting up a new MacBook Pro for. He has a collection of .pst files that are decent sized (20GB). I need an app to convert them that actually works. I'm trying Emailchemy, but, does anyone having any experience with an app that works?

Thanks.

I loaded Thunderbird, and use that to translate the Windows outlook .pst files into .mbox formats. After that, I drag/dropped the .mbox files onto the "On My Computer" section of the left hand pane in Entourage. This was not a speedy process, but it was free and it worked! After I completed the process, I removed Thunderbird.

Best of luck to U

O2M is what I used back in 2007 and it converted everything just fine. It costs $10, but it is well worth it.
