Install Outlook under Vista. Version 2003 or later works properly, version 2002 works but with a few problems. Outlook Express won't work under Vista. Outlook is also known as the MAPI client under Vista, and is needed to help Windows Mail understand .pst files. A free trial version will run more than long enough for the transfer. 2. Transfer first from Outlook to Outlook Express on the old computer. Then transfer from Outlook Express to Windows Mail: <http://www.askmehelpdesk.com/email/import-dbx-files-outlook-express-windows-mail-vista-86458.html> <http://www.vista4beginners.com/Migrate-from-Outlook-Express-to-Windows-Mail> You may need to set the files transferred from read only to read-write before you import them. |
