Retrieve e-mail from Entourage

Hello there,
I just upgraded to OS X Lion on my MacBook Pro, and found out my Microsoft Office 2004 no longer is compatible with it. Does anyone know how I can retrieve e-mails from Entourage. I had some important e-mails saved in folders. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Guillermo

Install Office 2008 or 2011 and it will import the mail.
Otherwise, I suggest you post your question on Microsoft's own forums for their Mac software as Apple Communities only provide support for Apple products and the MS forums are obviously geared more toward your question.

Any one know how to retrieve mail from entourage in Lion?

Entourage is not supported in Lion. I am looking for a solution to import mail from entourage into Mail without going back to Snow Leopard. Any suggestions?

Okay, I am going to try downloading the trial version of Office for Mac with Outlook and see if it will find my Entourage 2004 emails/contacts. Then I will move them to Mail. I will report back if it works. (Not sure if Lion already ate all my email though!)

Why Can't My iMac Retrieve E-Mail from Yahoo?

I am having persistent difficulties consistently connecting to Yahoo! in order to send and retrieve e-mail. Nothing has been changed except the password, which I've updated. I can retrieve e-mail from my Yahoo account via Safari, but for some reason my iMac's mail application cannot.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Have opened Mail, under Mail select Preferences, select the Yahoo account and delete the password and the renter it? Some times it is necessary to delete the account then reestablish the account info to clear problems.

Importing mail from Entourage to Mail App - unable to connect error - help.

unable to connect to Microsoft Entourage. Try opening Microsoft Entourage then run the import.
I tried this, with no results.
Please advise.

Importing emails to Mac MAil from Entourage

I just imported all of my emails from Entourage 2008 to Mac Mail. Although it seemed to go smoothly, setting up all the corresponding folders on "On My Mac", I've discovered that the sub-folders only contain the headers of the emails and none of the content!
Has anyone else come across this and does anyone know of a fix?
Thanks

OK Ignore that - I found that if i moved the subfolder up one level and then started a new folder and moved it back that the emails miraculously appeared. Strange bug!

Mail hangs upon retrieving last mail from POP account

Hi,
I have a problem with retrieving mail from a POP account. Mail seem to hang after the last new mail has been retrieved from the account. E.g, the activity viewer shows "Fetching 7 of 7", the progress bar indicates that all mails have been retrieved, but never completes. Pressing the Stop button next to the progress bar does not have an effect. Mail then indefinitly hangs in the "STOPPING" phase. In that state I cannot retrieve mails for other accounts, either. I have to force quit Mail.
Has anyone experiences similar problems and found a solution?
Thanks,
Sascha

Does your account have webmail capability? If so, log into your account that way, and deal with the offending message.

Sounds like you're using a pop3 client on your home machine with the settings set to remove immediately off server once delivered to client.

Upgrade to ios 5 deleted some important e-mails and now won't retrieve e-mail from ISP???

Once we upgraded to the new ios 5 we lost e-mails on both the iPad and also on the iMac. It also has stopped being able to get new e-mail from my isp Comcast. It has the little circle running up in the top corner but can't get e-mail even though it still has all the isp info there including smtp and passwords etc. etc.

I updated my wife's 3GS to 5.0.1 and some of her emails were deleted, and it will not receive any email from the server either. My sister had no problems until she updated to 5.0.1 either. After it, her 4 was going very slow, wouldn't make any sounds for notifications, and apple tech walked her through everything. She received a new iPhone 4 from the apple store, and it did the exact same thing. Apple's answer was it is a hardware fault. It seems like all around the new update has more problems than it fixes.

Retrieving deleted mail from trash folder

Hi, Can anyone please tell me how to retrieve emails from last year, that I deleted from 'trash' in my mail folder?
Thanks

It could be possible with 3'rd party software, but that's assuming you haven't been using your computer much since the point of that delete. And I'm assuming that's unlikely.
What kind of account was this, pop or imap?

My ipad2 suddenly quit retrieving my mail from Yahoo. I have checked my settings, done everything except delete my account, which Yahoo tells me I would loose all my data. Please fix this. What to do?

My ipad 2
suddenly quit retrieving my Yahoomail. I have checked my settings and done all suggestions, except deleting and restarting my Yahoo acct. Yahoo says I would loose all my data. Please fix this. What to do?

You can safely delete your account FROM YOUR IPAD with no issues what so ever. I've done it a few times.
Go into the settings, mail, contacts and calendars, delete the account and then re add it. (What yahoo means about losing your data is if you close down your account with them, not just off your devices)
If you do remove it from your iPad, it will delete hte data. But just off your device. (at least taht's been my experience). Once you readd hte account it'll redownload the mails.
Or you can also just wait. Yahoo has been 'improving' their servers and have been causing randomly persistent outages for months now. Usually when they are working on the server your mail is on, you have issues.
You can wait them out or find work arounds. For example, even if hte mail app messes up, you can still use safari to access your mail.

Apple Mail won't retrieve new mail from Yahoo IMAP

I've been using Apple Mail with my Yahoo/Rogers account via IMAP for months with no problems.
Starting a few weeks ago, new mail in the Yahoo Inbox does not get delivered to Apple Mail.
I know there's lots of new mail - I logged into mail.yahoo.com with Safari, and see lots of unread messages in the inbox.
It's not a password problem. The Connection Doctor shows 'green': access to both the IMAP and SMTP servers is successful.
I have many other IMAP folders configured, and they all sync fine between Yahoo and the Mac.
Apple Mail is configured to use imap.mail.yahoo.com, port 993 with SSL.
I've tried:
- rebooting the iMac.
- quitting/restarting Apple Mail
- taking account offline, then back on-line.
- Ctrl-clicking on the Inbox and forcing it to Synchronize "Yahoo Mail".
- calling Apple. I spent an hour on the phone with a pleasant tech there. He concluded it's a Yahoo problem.
I found one thing that fixed it temporarily: last week I deleted my e-mail account from Apple Mail. Of course, this deleted all my mailboxes in Apple Mail. Years of messages vanished. Then I quit Mail, restarted it, and configured it anew with my Yahoo account credentials. Mail then proceeded to log on to the Yahoo server and sync everything over IMAP. It took quite a while (over an hour), but eventually everything in my Inbox, Sent folder, and a couple dozen folders ('mailboxes') of saved messages reappeared. Including all the unread mail that had been waiting on the Yahoo mail server.
That was a week ago, and my Apple Mail inbox had receiving new e-mail with no problems until two days ago. Once again, new incoming messages are not getting synced. This 'fix' (delete all messages and resync from scratch) is not a practical solution.
Any ideas?
(iMac has 10.8.5. Mail is 6.6)

@riiich,
As I last reported, I temporarily 'fixed' it by deleting the account from Apple Mail and creating it again. Thanks to IMAP, Mail then synced all the mail folders (took a couple of hours - I have a lot of mail folders), and then it was working again. For a few days. Then the problem returned - new mail arriving in my Yahoo Inbox would not sync to the Inbox in Apple Mail.
I spent hours trying to resolve it. Changed password. Rebuilt Mail's index. Ran Disk Utility on my hard drive. Etc. Etc. I have a lot of server-side folders (>30), and thought that maybe Apple+Yahoo were screwing up due the large number of folders (a.k.a. mailboxes) to sync. So I migrated a lot of the folders off the server (setting up new mailboxes On The Mac) in which to file my messages. That didn't help. Meanwhile, I started using Yahoo's webmail interface so I could get my new mail. Then one morning (perhaps a week later), the inbox spontaneously started syncing again. I had done nothing the day before - it just started working overnight.
Based on this experience, I concluded that the F***-up is entirely on the Yahoo side and has nothing to do with my Mac nor Apple's software. My ultimate fix has been to abandon Yahoo Mail. Prior to Christmas, I moved my mail account to another service provider who provides IMAP. Then configured my Yahoo account to forward all incoming mail to the new server (which has a new e-mail address). Since doing so, I've had zero problems. All messages sent to my old Yahoo address get immediately forwarded to the new mail server, which has been syncing to Apple Mail with no problems at all.

Trying to retrieve old mail from back-up after reformating hard drive

I actually posted this question yesterday, but I think I put it on the wrong forum, so I'll try again.
My hard disk became corrupted and I had to reformat it and re-install my system software. I had everything backed up on an external hard disk, but I can't figure out how to get my mail, addresses, keycaps, etc, back onto the new installation. Can anyone help?
I didn't use any kind of utility to back things up; I simply copied my entire internal hard drive to an external hard drive.
I tried copying the library folder from my user folder that I backed up to the new instalation, but that didn't seem to do anything. I still didn't have any of my saved email or addresses.

A drag copy doesn't work like you'd expect, but well see...
First get EasyFind...

Near the bottom of the page.
Use it to search for...
.mbox
files only, on the external drive... do we get any results?

Importing mailboxes into Mail from Entourage only partially works.

I am trying to import all my Entourage mailboxes into Mail.
[The background of this is that I want to upgrade to Lion, but my version of Office won't work in Lion and I don't want to pay for a new version, so I'm going to abandon Entourage and use Mail].
The process appears to work properly; there is no error message and Mail tells me that the mailboxes have been imported into a folder called Import.
However when I look at the Mail mailbozes, all teh messages are not there. The import has worked up to a point and then just stopped. By this I mean all the actual mailboxes (and sub mailboxes) are in place, tbut only the first 50% or so of the messages are there. (Admitedly, there are a large number of mesages in my mailboxes and the import has worked through them logically by alpahbetical order of mailboxes.)
I've also tried dragging the missing message across manually, but this doesn't work.
Any ideas?

Well there are some suggested solutions on here if you search for them. Hoever, I eventually worked around it by just importing a section of my old email at a time. A bit tedious, but it worked.

Migrating from Entourage to Mail

I want to move my E-Mail from Entourage to Mail. I'm using a new MacBook Pro with 10.6.1and wondered if there were any tips I need before I start the process.
I'm intending to use the "File/Import Mailboxes" function in Mail
Also - I have a lot of subfolders which will also need transferring to Mail and am a little scared of messing up the process and losing important messages.
Any advice before I make the transfer will be gratefully received.
Thanks

I had nothing but problems with it.
I got a roughly 15 GB mail database (roughly 100.000 messages) which I am trying to import from Entourage to Mail using 10.6.1. None of my folders with more than roughly 2500 - 3000 messages in them could have been taken over. None of them. When the import reaches somewhere more than 2000 messages in the actual folder, the import stops and just results all the rest of the folders left empty.

Moving from Entourage to Mail/Address Book

Hi, I am currently using Entourage 2004 where I have my Mac account and two other email accounts syncing. I was interested in using Apple Mail, Address Book and iCal instead. Is there a way to export my email history within all of the folders and subfolders to Mail from Entourage? Likewise, can I bring in the contacts list and calendar in Entourage to the Address Book and iCal?
Thanks.

BDAqua, I have one IMAP and two POP accounts. So as you may know, Entourage splits the two different eMail configs into two separate folder trees. Will Mail, bring in bother folder systems?
