Import from Eudora Mac to Entourage question

[Murray]

I have recently moved from Eudora Mac to Entourage. I successfully imported
my address book, and have *SOME* mail I'd like to import as well, but I
don't want to import all of it. Do I get any granularity of selection on
import of mail, or it is a 'whole enchilada' kind of thing?

Entourage can import mbox files, which Eudora practically invented.

See <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/import_export/another.html> for tips.

Adam:

Good morning! And thanks! Unfortunately, it's a binary thing - either you
import them ALL or none. Or am I missing a way to refine that import?

When I wanted to selectively import from Eudora into Entourage, I manually
moved the mailboxes that I didn't want to import OUT of my Eudora mail
folder (in the Finder). Then ran the import. Then moved the mailboxes back.

Brilliant, Sonjay. Sheesh. I gotta depend on you for everything! 8)
