Transferring e-mails from Microsoft Outlook Express to Entourage '08

Ok, so I agreed to help my neighbor with an e-mail issue she was having. Her issue was moving all of her e-mails from her PC (on Outlook Express) to her new iMac (using Entourage '08). It's a rather complicated thing, I'm sure, and I'll try to go over everything as thoroughly, and as simply, as possible.
She has an @comcast e-mail account. She has her @comcast account set with Outlook Express, on her PC, and she is able to receive all incoming e-mails on O.E., but they disappear on the Comcast e-mail page 24 hours after she receives them.
When she purchased her iMac, the Geniuses at the retail store set up her @comcast account to Mail, and from that point, she received all NEW e-mails from her @comcast account, and this time they weren't being deleted from the Comcast page.
She asked me to transfer all of her e-mails on O.E. to Entourage (just for archiving purposes, so Mail isn't over-cluttered with a near decades worth of e-mails).
I've tried several methods, but I can't figure out how to transfer the emails from O.E. to Entourage. After an hour, or two, I realized that her old settings on O.E. were set to erase the e-mails from the Comcast server.
All in all, I need to know..... how to transfer emails from O.E. (which are deleted from the Comcast server) over to Entourage.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Here's some possibilities:
Import Outlook Express (PC) emails into Mail
Mail.app - Importing from Outlook and Outlook Express
Moving emails from Outlook Express to Mac OS X
If you do some more Google searches you may find other possibilities. You may be able to export from OE to Thunderbird on the PC, move the Thunderbird data to the OS X version of Thunderbird, then move from Thunderbird to Mail. The advantage of Thunderbird is that you can export both email and contacts from OE.

  • Microsoft Outlook Express to Entourage

    Hi people,
    I'm not sure whether this post is in the right section. I just bought a Macbook and have been using Windows. I now have the wonderful time of transferring all my Documments and programs across to the Mac. Question - how do I do this. Copy the programs into USB and then transfer over?
    What about my Outlook emails. I can transfer my Outlook to Outlook Express (someone told me that Entourage is like Outlook Express) but how do I copy my whole OUTLOOK EXPRESS EMAILS as a folder across to Entourage??
    HELP??

    Thanks.. it looks like what I need but I don't think they deliver to Australia.

  • Importing Address Book from Microsoft Outlook Express 5 for Mac (v5.02)

    I just made the leap to a Mac Pro 8 Core from a 350MHz G3. I was running 10.3.9 on the G3, but I was still using the old Outlook mail program because I was comfortable with it. Now I can't figure out how to import the address book into Mail 3.3. I know I waited too long to buy a new computer, But I was able to do what I wanted to do with my old machine. (In fact, the G3 was six years old when I went from OS 9.2.2 to 10.3.9. It worked better with 10.3.9 than it did with all the other OS's I ran on it. Try THAT with a PC!!!) So if I'm hosed, I'm hosed, I can live with that, but I wanted to pick the collective brains of my fellow Mac community people before I threw in the towel.

    Sorry - its late
    But you still should be able to export a CVS (Excel comma delimited file) - almost any address book can

    Hi jkmay01,
    In your Acrobat Preferences under Email Accounts, click Add Account>Other
    In the Add Webmail Account window, input your email account details
    Under Advanced Settings, configure your incoming and outgoing ports and security settings per your email account
    Click OK, and then click Add. In the window, click the email account you just added and click "Make Default"
    When it's set as the default mail account you'll see a check mark
    Let me know if this helps.

  • Import mails from microsoft outllook to mac outlook

    Am trying to import mails from MS outlook to MAC outlook and its not importing all msgs/ folders..
    adv why??

    You're in luck, Imap and Exchange accounts store their data on the server.
    Leave Outlook alone, just add the accounts to Mail and let them synchronize, no import required. You can leave them in Outlook or remove them as you please once everything in Mail is done.

  • Opening mail in Microsoft outlook

    Hi,
    I've noticed this question or ones similar to this have gone unanswered but I am going to try. Is there a way to open .mac mail in Microsoft Outlook in XP. I have a mac at home and I can use the mail app to look at my emails. At work I have to use a windows machine and I hate having to go on to the .mac website and login...etc..
    I have tried to set it up myself but I just do not know what server address to put into the setup.
    Even if this is impossible, could someone tell me so I don't keep trying forever.
    Thanks
    Jason

    I haven't accessed by .Mac account with Outlook but I do access my .Mac account with Outlook Express on my Windows PC at work.
    If you have not changed your .Mac account from a .Mac type account to a POP type account with the Mail.app on your Mac, you need to create the account as an IMAP type account in Outlook or Outlook Express. I also use Outlook for my business email account at work but I prefer using Outlook Express for my personal email account to keep things separate.
    Select IMAP as the account type.
    Incoming Mail Server: mail.mac.com
    Outgoing or SMTP Server: smtp.mac.com
    Account Name for the Incoming Mail Server: The portion of your .Mac email address in front of the @ sign only.
    Password: Your .Mac account password.
    For the Outgoing Mail Server, select "My server requires authentication" and also select "Use the same settings as my incoming mail server".
    Depending on your company restrictions, the only thing you may have trouble with is using the .Mac Outgoing or SMTP server at work.

  • Windows 8 Mail from Microsoft setup problem

    I have a Dell tablet running Windows 8.1 Professional. I've installed the Universal ("Metro") app "Mail from Microsoft".  I've set up an IMAP account. I'm able to log in, receive and send email. But, the email address for this account
    is different than the "sync" account. But, when I go into the account setting page, I can't change the "preferred email address" field -- it's grayed out.  I'm assuming that it's the field that the controls the "from" email
    address.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how to change it?

    Hi Richard,
    How did you sync that?
    When you click the "Sync" as the screenshot below, all your new emails from your mail accounts have been synced to the Mail app. It's not sync one specific account emails.
    About "Preferred email address" settings this is only for outlook.com. Allows you to send an email using an Outlook.com alias.

  • How do I set up my iPad so that I can recieve the emails from my Outlook Express account

    How do I set up my iPad so that I can recieve the emails from my Outlook Express account

    Your iPad doesn't receive email from Outlook Express (or any other email client).  It receives email from your email provider.  To set up your email account on your iPad go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap Add Account and add your email provider's account settings with your username and password.  iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, AOL and Hotmail email settings are automatically entered by tapping the appropriate button.  Others must be manually entered by tapping Other.  (Exchange accounts will also require you to enter your email provider's settings.)

  • How to change "Custom Delivery has failed to these recipients or group from another user" From Microsoft Outlook

    By default, the system generated mailbox comes from sender “Microsoft Outlook” like the screen shoot below .Sometimes we might need to change the display name of the system generated mailbox because of some reasons.
    The simplest way to change the field of the display name on the red line is to
    make this change in the ADSIEdit. Make short of long, here are the steps:
    Open ADSIEdit.msc
    Configuration -> Services -> Microsoft Exchange -> Company Name -> Transport Settings
    Right-click “CN=MicrosoftExchange329e71ec88ae4615bbc36ab6ce41109e” to properties.
    Locate the display name attribute, it should be Microsoft Outlook, then change it to Desired Display name that users want to see when they receive an NDR.
    Close ADSIEdit.
    Up to now, this can satisfy the needs of most people. But in my case, I also want to change the SMTP address ([email protected])
    to be easy to understand.
    We can use the below command to get the value of the MicrosoftExchangeRecipientPrimarySmtpAddress
    Get-OrganizationConfig | FL MicrosoftExchangeRecipientPrimarySmtpAddress
    To change the value of MicrosoftExchangeRecipientPrimarySmtpAddress is little bit tricky.
    If we make any organizational changes by running Set-Organizationconfig command then it reverts back this value to default value Microsoft Outlook.
    First we need to change the value by running the below command
    Set-OrganizationConfig -MicrosoftExchangeRecipientEmailAddressPolicyEnabled $False
    And then we need to set an appropriate email address from which it can send out NDR’s to the internal users.
    Set-OrganizationConfig -MicrosoftExchangeRecipientPrimarySmtpAddress
    [email protected]
    Note:
    MicrosoftExchangeRecipientEmailAddressPolicyEnabled –
    If this parameter is set to
    $false, you must manually add new e-mail addresses to the Microsoft Exchange recipient when
    e-mail address policies are added or modified. If this parameter is set to
    $true,
    every change we did above will be removed.
