Yeah, there's about 1,000 posts here on that ;)Basically you export Contacts to a CSV file, then import the CSV file to Windows Contacts.On messages, probably the easiest thing would be to import them into Outlook Express. Drag all the messages headers out of Outlook Express to a regular document folder, flash drive, or whatever. Each will be a .eml file. Then drag all those .eml files into the message header area in Windows Mail.For more info/other approaches search this NG for "import outlook" or something."Richard Miller" <Richard Miller@discussions.microsoft.com>

When you open windows mail, there should be an import at the left hand side, select it then chose messages then the option for outlook should appear."Richard Miller" wrote:

"Richard Miller" <Richard Miller@discussions.microsoft.com> You can import messages from the default PST file of an installed copy of Outlook. Frank Saunders, MSMVP OE/WM fjsmjs.com Answer in newsgroup. Don't expect an answer to email.
