| | Re: Can't import Outlook.pst file into Windows mail? Windows Mail cannot import a .pst file unless Outlook is installed on the Vista computer. You can install Outlook, copy the .pst to the Vista computer, open the .pst with Outlook, then you can import into Windows Mail. Or, If you have Outlook installed on an XP computer, import the .pst data into Outlook Express, copy the .dbx files and .wab file to the Vista computer, and import into Windows Mail. -- Vista Home Premium 32 SP1 http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview "sbaiar" <sbaiar@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:C26D5065-2A61-4212-816C-F3B644A8651B@xxxxxx Quote: > I get an error "Messages cannot be imported from the MAPI client."... > nice. > I'm trying to import messages from an Outlook XP .pst file to Windows Mail > on > Vista Home Premium.

| | Re: Can't import Outlook.pst file into Windows mail? I just decided to use my Outlook XP on my Vista Home Premium computer. It doesn't seem to be causing any problems and I like it much better than Windows Mail.
