Mail priorities (high/ normal/ low), on the other hand, were preserved. All email data imported fine, except for the fact that mail statues (read/ unread, replied, flagged etc.) were lost, and all unread messages marked as read. Individual folders within each mail account are further sub-folders. The mails are imported into a folder, with sub-folders for each email account you had setup. Importing our mails took around 32 minutes, which, of course, is no reflection on Stellar's email converter. Let Outlook do its thing and finish the import.

Click next and select "Entourage archive (.rge)" and go to the next step where you select the file exported in the previous step. Fire up Microsoft Outlook 2011 and go to File -> Import and choose "Entourage information from an archive or earlier version".

We were greeted with an option to view a small tutorial on how to import the resulting file into Outlook. It took 25 minutes to convert around 5GB of our mails. We were greeted by a progress bar as the application started the conversion process in the background. We restarted the application, and simply clicked Convert, followed immediately by Save (no mucking around options this time), triggering the conversion process. We are not sure why the options exists at all, especially since trying to make this non-existent choice lead to an application crash! Don't bother fiddling with Format, since rge is the only choice. Once you've picked the folder, simply click Convert and you'll be greeted by a Save dialog - pick the location and click save. You can change that to any customer folder that contains Apple Mail data, but probably won't need to (leave it as is if you don't know what you are doing). The Mail Folder Path points to ~/Library/Mail on launch, the folder where Apple Mail stores your mails be default. The application opens with a simple screen with just two controls - path to the Apple Mail folder and a Convert button. Our advise to Stellar would be to start signing their apps, so users feel more secure running their app. You can change the setting, run the app, and then change it back to the original. If you are running OS X Mountain Lion with default Gatekeeper settings, you'll be greeted by this message when you first open the app:ĭon't worry, you can change the Gatekeeper settings via System Preferences (see screenshot below) to allow all apps, though it does make your Mac a little bit insecure if you don't know what you are doing. With no native support in Microsoft Outlook to import mails from Apple Mail, this utility is sure to come in handy for anyone looking to make the switch. Stellar Apple Mail to Outlook 2011 Converter is a simple, no-frills application that delivers exactly what it promises on the box.
