#Compare email programs with entourage code
Getting mail out of Entourageįor this part, I wrote an Applescript (based heavily on a code from macosxhints) to export all currently-selected emails in Entourage to a folder on my Mac. My eventual solution has two parts – getting mail out of Entourage, and then getting it in to Outlook.
#Compare email programs with entourage Pc
It’s almost as if lots of people are switching from PC to Mac, but few need to go in the other direction…) (As an aside, there are numerous ways to go the other way, to export from Outlook and import into Entourage. You can export a whole folder as an MBOX file from Entourage, but these can’t be opened by Outlook and so aren’t much use either. There used to be a really good Applescript export tool for exporting from Entourage, but sadly it’s never been updated to work on Leopard. eml for individual emails) and Outlook (.pst for everything).
The main problem is the lack of a common format between Entourage (.mbox for folders. Thankfully, a bit of Applescript and a relatively cheap utility got things working for me. You’d think that exporting a selection of emails from one Microsoft email management tool to another would be easy, right? Sadly not. I’ve recently had to export a bunch of emails from Entourage and into Outlook, in order to send them to someone in a format they can browse and read on a PC.
