I moved netscape mail from a PC to Apple Mail and would like to move from Apple Mail to Entourage 2004. I doscovered that if you change the extension from .emlx to eml, Entourage 2004 will import the message. However, with thousands of e-mails in my mail box it will take months to convert all of the extensions manually. Does anyone know of an available script that will automatically convert of my mail with .emlx to .eml so I can import my messages into Entourage 2004? Thanks
