I wanted to transfer my emails from my sent items folder and my address book in Win XP Outlook Express to my new Mac and I used Eudora Mailbox Cleaner.
It seemed to work correctly, but after I checked, I realized that it had only imported about half of my sent items folder contents into the Mac. Messages since 2005 had not been imported, although messages dating back to 2003-2005 had been imported fine. The address book imported correctly.
I tried it again and it added a few more sent items but nothing more recent than 2005. The OE sent items folder in Win XP contains about 300 emails but only about 130 imported into Mail using the Eudora Mailbox Cleaner.

Can anyone please advise on what may be wrong? Is there a limit to the number of items it can handle? How can I get all the messages in the sent items folder from OE to import correctly into my Mac?

Thanks a lot for any advice.
