I'm trying to import eml messages to Outlook 2010. I select the folder where the eml files are, then select the folder where I want them to go (\\Outlook\J) but when I run |
Hi guys,
I have the exact same problem as Chris. I installed Outlook 2010 on Windows 7, then copied over some (many) .eml files via a backup utility. After finding out that Outlook 2010 would not recognize the .eml files backed up from Outlook Express under XP, I installed the utility (V3.1.3). I have run it stand alone as well as in Outlook 2010. It shows the files being converted, and lists how many files were done, and also I see the .pst target file grow in size and it has the time stamp updated. But I do not see the folder(s) in Outlook 2010, even after a restart?

I have now resolved this problem (or at least have a workaround). Firstly, I changed the email account from IMAP to POP, but I don't know if that had anything to do with it. Then I noticed that although no new folders were being created, the messages were in fact copied into Outlook under the email address. So then I manually created the appropriate folder, and moved the messages into it. All done! I had assumed that the folders would be created.
