I also think that your Mac may have come with a Trial version of Office (one version or another). Big tip for Google, Microsoft's 'demo' versions are always called 'Test Drive'. You may have to use Google to locate a trial version of Office 2001, or Office 2008, from experience the Microsoft site does little more than try to sell you Office 2011. Otherwise you have one more no-cost possibility, you may look at emulating a Mac OS 8.6 or OS 9.0.4 in SheepShaver on your intel and importing into Entourage in Office 2001 in the emulator. But the latest versions of Office (20( may do away with the requirement for Classic and running OE. You're not going to be able to use Classic at all because of Intel and OSX 10.5. So I'm at a loss of how to achieve this now.Īgain, just from memory, Microsoft Entourage (Office), even the 30 day Trial version, CAN import a Microsoft Outlook Express mail account, BUT from memory it needed Classic to run OE. That was the best tool I could recall that would do this for you. Inbox contains several hundreds probably more emails, so forwarding each email is not an option. Note: OE inbox icon 'messages', when opened in OS X launches the terminal, as it was a Unix executable. I have also tried to import the emails through Entourage (Office 2004, OS X) with the same negative result. Part of the issue might have to do that I don't have Classic installed on that computer. Problem is that even if I browse and select the identities folder it won't recognise it. Mail then said 'select where OE 5 is located - if necessary Classic will boot'. After making a copy of OE emails in OS 9 ('Identities' folder) I tried importing that folder through Mail on the new mac (OS 10.3).

(OS 10.3) had a feature which allowed to import messages directly from Outlook Express (it was later removed in Mail v.3, OS 10.4 and onwards). I found a previous thread in which this topic was covered at length but after trying the different options none of them actually worked. I would like to export a whole email inbox from Outlook Express 5 (Mac OS 9) to Mail (Mac OS X).
