Saving archived emails?

[Nigel Molesworth]

I'm plan to install Office 2007 on my Vista PC, but without Outlook:
Windows Mail and Calendar do all I need.

I've imported all my emails into Outlook Express, and then to Windows
Mail, but OE won't import the Archive Folders (pst files).

Is there a way I can save the contents of the archives in eml format?

Cracked it! Move messages from Archive Folders to new sub-folder in
Inbox, *then* import into OE, and thence to Windows Mail.

I can not see how windows mail and calendar comes anywhere close to what
outlook could do (IMO)

He didn't say they do everything Outlook does.

He said Windows Mail and Calendar do everything he needs and I agree with
that except that I would have left Windows Calendar out. Outlook doesn't
have any features that are useful to me that I can't find in Windows Mail.

Whereas I would be completely lost without Outlook - one man's meat, etc.
