I have just puchased a G4 powerbook (my first MAC) and as I am accustomed to using MS Outlook as my main E-mail program, I have purchased Office 2004 for MAC to begin using Entourage instead. I am wondering though how I will import all my mail/contacts etc into the new program as Entourage does not seem to support .pst files. I have read some posts about an exchange server but I do not think I use one of those - I have my own web-site and all my mail goes through there.

Any ideas how I can convert these .pst files to something that Entourage can import?

Any advice would be much appreciated,

Thanks

Here is a page that describes one method. I don't know if a better way has been discovered/developed since:

Might as well point it out: Mac = Macintosh. MAC = media access control. Never the two should you mix.
You heard me! Sod off, Sadr!

Thanks so much for all this valuable advice. I now have some options to consider - I will probably get the Outlook2Mac program, as that seems like the easiest way to do this (I have many large files).

Thanks again
