SUMMARY
Unlike Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, Microsoft Exchange Windows clients
do not allow you to directly import folders using the File Import command.
In Microsoft Exchange, the File Import command imports Microsoft Mail .MMF
files, as well as Microsoft Exchange personal address book (.PAB) files.
MORE INFORMATION
To import folders from a .PST file, you must first add the .PST file to
your profile:
- In the Microsoft Exchange Windows client, choose Services on the Tools
menu.
- Click Add.
- Select Personal Folders in the Available Information Services list box.
If you do not have Personal Folders as one of the available information
services, contact your Microsoft Exchange administrator. The appropriate
information service is not installed on your computer and you will need
to reinstall the Microsoft Exchange client.
- Click OK. A dialog box will appear, asking you for the name of the .PST
file you want to open. If this file does not exist, a new (empty) file
will be created. If this file does exist, select the .PST file from
which you want to import the folders.
The folders from the new .PST file are listed along with your other
folders. You can move or copy folders or messages between the new .PST and
your other .PSTs or folders.
