Error importing mails from Outlook
guillerm...@gmail.com
When importing mails from Outlook, after creating a local folder
account, I receive the following error message:
Save Draft Error
Unable to save your message as draft.
Unable to open the temporary file C:\DOCUMEN~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\TEMP
\mapiattach-1.tmp.
Check your 'Temporary Directory' file setting.
When clicking OK, a new message comes up:
Save Draft Error
Unable to save your message as draft.
Unable to open the temporary file %P0%. Check your 'Temporary
Directory' file setting.
>From this point Thunderbird just keeps presenting the message over and
over, having to force the program to shutdown.
I've already tried deleting the Drafts.msf file in my Profile
Directory as suggested by Peter Potamus and all sorts of other
options, none work.
All the help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Guillermo.

when you delete the *.msf file, you are doing so with the
program closed, correct?

Yes, but since my mail in Outlook was in may different folders and
subfolders, I found out a whole bunch of Drafts.msf files, must I
delete each and every one of them?

work? It seems that the import process stops at the point at which the
popups start, so even stopping TB, deleting drafts folders, and then
importing again would make it happen again.

Use outlook Express as an intermediary....(If you are on Vista then I
can't help...)

Here I solved the problem with error importing outlook (not express)
mail into thunderbird: my Antivirus was blocking the access to some
mail attachments to thunderbid was not able to import it. After
disabling the antivirus, import is working (well at least it does no
longer produce the error)
Hope it helps,
Mario
