Is it possible to import flagged email (they appear as tasks) from outlook ?

Thanks :-)

I tried testing with dr3

steps are as below 

Action:#1
a> Tools > Import Tasks > { Select Outlook} in Format 
     a.1> Select new task list in "Import To"
Result:
a> I see just the tasks and not flagged emails. 
b> Hide unflagged check box is selected

Action#2
a>  I tried with "change" and selected "Inbox" as main folder
b>  I got an errors and program hung (every time i attempt). 

I am attaching screen shot as well. 

disclaimer: I have a very large inbox.

Test2 : scenario = User wish to keep same list updated and wish to reimport
Result: Error message (screen attached) , confirmed with retest and it's consistent behavior, I hit retry and program took 17 mins to import (same time as it is doing first time), program did not create duplicate tasks but took same amount of time.

Additional Observation:  Currently program offer to remove imported item from outlook but end user may still wish to keep it (for reference) , there may be a additional chk box that says , only consider new items (based on time stamp when last import run)  to improve performance of re-import.
