In the PC world ..
Outlook can import from .PST files
Outlook Express can connect to Microsoft Exchange using LDAP client but it's not pretty.

thanks for the links - ill check it out.

problem was that the email was in outlook express on the macs - which cannot be easily imported into outlook for some odd reason.

the only solution i had for them was to drag and drop the mail from oe to outlook. they complained then that the from feild was always there own name, not the original sender.

must say the macs were a bit annoying - the outlook express client kept "taking" the email out of the outlook inbox and moving into its own - even though it wasnt the default client anymore. everytime outlook express did a send and recv (either scheduled or manual) it would look in outlook for mail and then grab it and move it over.

mac users are annoying too. try telling them to try a new thing - all they do is complain about how the old thing was waaaayyy better.

i have entourage working well with exchange, it might be a better option rather than reverting to os 9 for your mail. enable imap on your exchange server, point entourage at it and bob's your uncle. entourage should import all your outlook express stuff without any problems.

hope this helps.
