Can you import your messages into Vista Mail from Outlook 2007? I should clarify; Outlook is on a separate XP PC. Can I copy the .pst file to my Vista machine and import to Mail? It looks like the import will only work if Outlook is on my Vista machine. > Can you import your messages into Vista Mail from Outlook 2007? >I should clarify; Outlook is on a separate XP PC.

Install Outlook on your Vista machine. Versions 2003 and more recent run well under Vista; versions 2000 and 2002 run under Vista, but with some problems. Windows make needs to use part of Outlook to be able to import .pst files. 2. First, import the .pst file into Outlook Express on an older machine with both Outlook Express and Outlook installed. Then, import the messages from Outlook Express into 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> After you copy the files to a directory on the hard drive of your Vista computer, make sure the copies are read-write instead of readonly before you import then into Windows Mail. Thanks for the quick response. I will install Outlook 2007 on my Vista machine temporarily and copy over my pst file from the other PC. Thanks again! >>I should clarify; Outlook is on a separate XP PC. Can I copy the .pst >>file to my Vista machine and import to Mail?
