Hi,

I am planning to use Microsoft Exchange's Internet Mail for email
read/write. I have many email messages which are read and stored in
local hard disk by using Eudora. How can I export those Eudora
email messages into such format can be imported by Microsoft Exchange's
Internet Mail.

Thank you for assistance.

This would be extremely useful.
IS there a FAQ or Website for importing/exporting Eudora and other
email package mails?

On my Eudora page:

http://mango.human.cornell.edu/kens/eudora.html

It's in the section titled "Three more FAQs, with Answers." I have
instructions for converting between Eudora, Netscape, Pine, Unix (Berkeley
mail and other standard Unix mail format clients), as well as links to
programs that convert Eudora<-->Pegasus mailboxes.

Unfortunately, I have yet to see any program or instructions that converts
between Exchange and Eudora, or Exchange and anything else. Eudora,
Netscape, and the U of Washington (Pine) developers chose to adhere to the
open standard for internet email that has been in existence since 1982, but
the folks at Microsoft decided to use their own proprietary mailbox
format, and not be helpful in giving any clues as to what the format is,
or even providing a facility in Exchange to convert from standard formats.
IMO that is reason enough never to use Exchange, but certainly other
people have different needs.

Do you really expect to find answers on how to *get rid of Eudora* in
a Eudora NewGroup? You probably will, but ... :-)

If you aren't successful, you should try looking at the public
Microsoft Newsgroup for Internet Mail/News, I think I've already seen
the solution posted there.
