From the File menu, you can now import your address book and messages from other email programs. You may now import from Microsoft Outlook Express 5.0. To import from another email program, do the following.
1. From the File menu, choose Import. The Import and Addresses dialog box appears.
2. To import your email messages from Outlook, check Import Mail. To import your address book entries, check Import Address Book Entries.
3. To transfer your email account, click OK. Eudora imports all settings including personalities, incoming and outgoing server names, real name, return name, and login name.
Important. It may take a long period of time for the migration to occur depending on how much mail, the complexity of your settings, and the size of your address book that you are importing into Eudora. During the migration, if the process stops because of a corrupt message, you must go into your Microsoft Outlook Express 5.0 and delete the corrupt message to resume the migration.
The Success window appears indicating that your migration was successful. Once migration occurs, the settings you are importing are immediate, and your mail is migrated. For more information on importing, see the Eudora User Manual.
Note. When the migration is occurring, notice in the Mailbox window that a mailbox tree begins to form. For example, you will see the folder "Outlook" and all its mailboxes listed underneath. A plus sign (+) next to the folder name indicates that other folders/mailboxes are contained within this folder.
