You might try one of the Outlook newsgroups, maybe someone there knows
the answer?

You could also try searching with Google, there are some programs that
will do what you want but they aren't free....

One thing that may work (it works with other mail clients) is to send
yourself an email with your emails from Agent as an attachment, be sure
to send ONLY, don't send and receive. Then tell Outlook to get mail,
open the attachment and move the mail messages into Outlook's folders.

You may have to do this several times to avoid making the attachment
too large. Try it first with only 5-10 emails in the attachment and
see if it'll work.

What file formats does Agent support for exporting? If one of the types that
Outlook can handle (.csv, .txt) the export to that format and import into
Outlook.

Hi Milly
I can export as .txt files, but how do I import into Outlook?

Thanks XS11E
Sent myself a couple of emails and that worked fine
However, the attachments idea didn't work too well
So, I'll just email myself the ones that are important
