The other day I finally gave up on Outlook at work and decided to use
Becky! there too. I found a utility on SourceForge to convert Outlook
files into something more standard but it didn’t export all the headers
so I Googled around and found the one true way to get your mail out of
Outlook; is Mozilla!
Mozilla stores it’s mail in “mbox” format which every other sensible
mail program and scripting language supports and more importantly
it can import your mail from Outlook. As far as I can tell, it is
perfect.
Things would have gone smoothly if I had hadn’t had so many folders in
Outlook as each one became a separate mbox in Mozilla.
Overall a great success
