E-Mail Conversion
I've been using Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 Trial on Windows Vista,
but I am now going to be going back to XP more often. (Although I'm not getting rid of Vista nor the Office on there yet.) On XP, I have Microsoft Office XP Professional. My problem is, I'm wanting to import all of my e-mails I had in Outlook 2007 into Outlook 2002, but it won't import them. Also, if I try to open an e-mail, I get a message saying that the e-mail requires Office 2003 or newer to open them. How can I get the message converted back into something Outlook 2002 will read? Actually, in the long run, I'm trying to get my e-mails into Mozilla Thunderbird, but I must get them into Outlook first for Thunderbird to import them because it won't accept the e-mails directly. Any help appreciated. Thanks. |

I think I figured it out. I had to go back onto Vista and install
Thunderbird, then import the Outlook messages into Thunderbird on Vista. I was then able to find the 'profiles' folder for thunderbird and copy them onto my XP Thunderbird installation, so I now have them on Thunderbird on XP, and I also learned a few things about exporting with Thunderbird, which seems somewhat complicated, but at least a way exists. Thanks... Travis King wrote: I've been using Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 Trial on Windows Vista, but I am now going to be going back to XP more often.

The process to make the data stpre compatible is fairly straightforward. This article is geared for Outlook 2003, but it should work with Outlook 2007 as well: http://www.howto-outlook.com/howto/d...utlook2003.htm -- Brian Tillman |
