August 11th, 2011How do I migrate from Microsoft Outlook 2003 to Apple Mail? I can’t figure it out.
First you need to set up your Mail account, you’ll be prompted for this when you first launch Mail.
You will need details from your ISP such as ingoing and outgoing mail server – look for them in documentation sent to you when you started the service or from their website or any help service they have.
Once you’ve created the account any messages on the ISP’s server, both old and new will automatically start downloading to your Mail account. You can specify in Mail>Preferences Accounts tab, Advanced tab how long you want messages to remain on the server.
If you have old messages in Outlook that are no longer on the server but you want to bring across to Mail, check the link below for some ways of bringing them across:
