Outlook 2002 and 2003 do not support direct import of Qualcomm Eudora 6.x e-mail messages and address books. However, you can import your data into Microsoft Outlook Express and then import the data from Outlook Express into Outlook.

The following procedures require that you first import your data into Outlook Express, which is included with Microsoft Windows® and Microsoft Internet Explorer. After your data is in Outlook Express, you can import the e-mail messages and address book into Outlook.

Important  Attachments are lost during the transfer procedure because Outlook doesn't use the same method to save attachments as Eudora.
