Moving folders from Entourage to Apple Mail

I need to move several folders of 'saved messages' from Entourage to Apple Mail. I have done by using File>Import Mailboxes then clicked Microsoft Entourage. I get the boxes up and tick the ones I want to import.
They do drop into Mail, as do the headers of the mails inside each folder but when I click on one it's an empty email. I guess this is something to do with them not being mbox format.
Any ideas how I save all my Entourage emails in mbox format and then get them into Mail else I am going to be switching between both Applications every day?

Actually my subject is misleading: It should be "From Entourage on 1 mac to Entourage on another mac." In retrospect I should have posted this message in another thread. Sorry!
From Entourage drag the mailboxes into a folder on the desktop (it works).
Airport the folder over to the the other mac.
Launch Entourage & drag the .eml files (the extension for Entourage mailboxes) from the desktop folder into the Inbox in the Entourage application.
New mailboxes will automatically be created containing all of the emails in the Entourage window of the original computer.
This isn't strictly a Mail & Address book issue, perhaps it should have been in the OS 10.4 thread. In any case I hope this is useful to anyone who needs to xfer emails in such a manner. Resending each one would have been brutal as I'm talking several thousands. For tedious reasons too many to list I realized that I needed the mailboxes and their content transferred into Entourage on the other computer.
I love "drag and drop."

Exporting from Entourage to Mac Mail

I have a large Entourage inbox. Thousands of Emails. When I try to export from Entourage everything seems to work fine. But, when I import, only about a third come through. Is there a sure fire way to get all emails from Entourage to Mac Mail. I am using Mountain Lion.

Alex,
This thread is getting unbelievably messy for what originally was such a simple question. Nowhere did I say that the procedure I suggested was meant for a particular type of account or mailbox. It allows any messages to be exported in standard mbox format. It’s Stanley who mentioned IMAP as an alternative procedure to transfer mail between mail clients, and what I said in the post you’re replying to is precisely that IMAP has nothing to do with what I was talking about...
What does “suitable for archiving” mean? If you have any questions that have nothing to do with the problem of transferring mail from Mail to Entourage, which is what we’re supposed to be talking about here, please either find a thread that discusses the same questions or start a new topic to properly discuss them in their own thread instead of hijacking someone else’s thread. Here is a recent example of such a thread:

Importing messages from Entourage

On three machines all running 10.4.11 I try to import messages from Entourage, and the process always is as follows. The bar begins to progress, with the Folder name up top, followed by the quickly changing names of each subject line. It seems to be importing each message.
All three instances the imports finish, with all the folders/sub-folders imported but no messages.
I am going to upgrade the machines to 10.5 tomorrow. See if that works.

I need help also - to anyone out there - after importing the data from Entourage, in addition to missing messages, my mail.app is now running so slow (both downloading messages and opening messages).
The mail.app "Help" is also not opening up.
I wanted to re-load the software also to see if it will correct everything but do not know where to get the application from - is this the best thing to do or what alternatives are there?
Thanks,
gailp

How do I import contact list from entourage to apple mail?

I've been using Entourage as my email for years, but everything Microsoft on my Mac screw up. I want to get rid of all of my Microsoft stuff. How do I transfer my mail contacts from Entourage to Apple Mail?

Does Entourage export as CSV (comma separated vars)? You can import that file format into Contacts.

Import personal address book from entourage to addressbook/mail

Whats the most reliable way to import the personal address from Entourage to Addressboo/mail
Thanks

You can do so one of two ways.
With the Address Book application and Entourage launched with each partially visible on the Desktop, select a contact in the Entourage address book and at the menu bar, go to Edit > Select All.
Click and drag all selected/highlighted Entourage contacts to the Address Book "All" Group and then release.
If this doesn't work, create a folder on the Desktop. Click and drag all selected/highlighted Entourage contacts to the folder which will create a copy of each contact as a separate vCard file.
At the Address Book menu bar, go to File > Import and select vCards navigating to the folder on the Desktop which contains the exported Entourage contacts.

Moving from Entourage to Mac Mail

Hey All,
I'm moving all of my mail accounts over to mac mail so that when the time comes that I have my iPhone (few months hopefully) all my mail will go to the mac mail app, and thus to my phone as well.
First is there a way I can move all of my messages that i have saved from Entourage over to mail (without forwarding each individual one) AND i can't figure out how to create folders. I can make a smart mailbox, but I'm trying to create a folder so that, for instance, when my boss sends me an email, i can move it to the folder, so that I can save it. OR even have a rule set so that messages from my boss go to that folder. I was able to do it in entourage, i'm just wondering if i can in mail?

For import, read this apple article http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mail/2.0/en/ml807.html
For creating folder read this apple article http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mail/2.0/en/ml611.html
Hope this helps.

How do I move group lists from Entourage to Mac Mail

Does anyone know a way to import a group mailing list from Entourage into Mac Mail? Entourage says something about exporting to a note first but I’m lost. Any light anyone could shed would be appreciated.

Switch from Entourage to Apple mail

I have imported my Entourage emails and Addressbook into Apple mail. Some new emails are coming into Entourage and some into Apple Mail and some into both. How do I control this so they stop coming into Entourage and come only into Apple?
Thanks.
Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Thanks for your reply.
If I have imported my addressbook and emails from Entourage into Apple mail, is that the same thing has backing up my Entourage data as you suggested? Or is there something else I'm not aware of that should be backed up. All I have ever used Entourage for is email and addressbook. Entourage has also been automatically backing up up on iDisk.
Thanks again.
You're going to need to stop Entourage from getting
email from that account.
Open Entourage.
Go to the Entourage menu.
You can then select and delete the account.
Note: You should consider backing up your Entourage
data just in case you change your mind.

Gmail not deleting messages from Entourage

I have a gmail (imap) account set up in entourage and also have that same gmail account set up on my iPad. When I delete a message from entourage, the message also deletes on the iPad. However, if I delete a message from the iPad, it gets deleted on the gmail server but nothing happens to it within entourage.
How can I make the messages that are deleted on the iPad also delete within entourage?

I haven't used Entourage in years, I can't remember exactly so start in the Mail accounts options and look around for Imap or Subscribed folders settings.

It's in Account Settings on the Entourage menu.

How do you export messages from Ovi Suite?

As the title says, how do you export messages from Ovi Suite?
I know how to export messages from Nokia PC Suite, but it doesn't seem to be possible in the new Nokia Ovi Suite.
Here is how I would do it in the Nokia PC Suite.
1. I click the Messages icon to open Nokia Communication Center.
2. I click on the Messages option on the left pane to view only messages.
3. In the main window I mark the messages I want to export.
4. Then I go to File menu and chose Export.
5. Choose destination folder and I'm all set to export my messages from my Nokia.
I can chose between the formats CSV and VMG (vMessage) for export. If more than one message is marked only the CSV format is available. But what you can do to export several messages in the VMG format is to mark them all in the main window and press CTRL+C or right click and chose Copy to copy them all to RAM memory. Then all you have to do is create an empty folder on the desktop and paste them in there by pressing CTRL+V or right clicking and chosing Paste.
That's all there is to it, using Nokia PC Suite. So how do you do this in Nokia Ovi Suite? You don't, right?
And this **bleep** Ovi Suite is supposed to replace PC Suite?
Thank God I won't be needing neither of them much longer. I am switching to Android and HTC. Good luck with Ovi, the Ovi Player, the Ovi Suite, the PC Suite, the Symbian, the S60, the Symbian^1 (S60 5th edition), the Symbian^3, the Symbian^4 and what not.

I believe OVI took a step in the right direction with this option. I also believe it was made available due to the fact that OVI Suite cannot take a huge number of messages altogether. This option was made available so that the messages could be backed up.
However, I'd like to suggest the following, if possible.
1. Make Nokia OVI Suite be able to handle a huge number of messages.
2. Have the option to export only selected messages.

When I send a photo directly from iPhoto using the Mail app on my iMac, the wrong photo appears on my iPad2 Mail app. However the correct photo shows if I log into gmail on the iPad2. I assume there is a glitch with my "Mail" app on the iPad2.

When I send a photo directly from iPhoto using the Mail app on my iMac, the wrong photo appears on my iPad2 Mail app. However the correct photo shows if I log into gmail on the iPad2. I assume there is a glitch with my "Mail" app on the iPad2? Any suggestions for getting the correct photo to show on iPad2?

Update: I was able to have the correct photo show in my email as received on my iPad2 by changing a setting on my IMac prior to sending the photo on the email.
On the iMac, I went into iPhoto > Preferences > Email photos using > Mail (in lieu of "iPhoto"). This seems to have corrected the issue. I'm not sure why. Now the correct photo shows up when received on my iPad2.

Export Messages from UC 2.1.2es20.1119-20

Is there a way to export message from UC 2.1 so that I can save them as .wav or similar format files and put them on media? I remember being able to do something similar using Unity 5 when it was integrated with Exchange, but I don't see any similar functionality in 2.1.

correct - 1.2 (Windows based) and 7.0(2) and later (Linux based) work with COBRAS - 2.x does not since it did not support super-user IMAP mailbox access which COBRAS uses to get messages out of mailboxes for users.

I can't delete e-mail from Apple's native mail app. I am using Gmail.

I cannot delete mail from Apple's native mail app. I can do this in Gmail; but when I switch to the native app, it does not work.

Hello ike39
For issues with Mail, check out the first article below for general troubleshooting steps to get it working again. Also, is it archiving emails instead of deleting? Check out the second article to see if that is set properly.
