I've just looked on a Windows machines running Mozilla 1.1, and it has the option for Outlook Express as an import. My guess is that it may be dependent upon some Windows DLL's to actually do the import. > One of the reasons I decided against Evolution for my e-mail client was > that it said it cannot Import from Outlook Express.

I find Evolution much better than Mozilla, it might import data from Mozilla's mail store- though I've not tried. Evolution 1.2 seems much more improved to me, so the new version of Evolution might appeal more (read back on this list for more info)- once you get data across from Windows. I don't understand you not been able to copy from a message to a new compose window. That certainly works for me, highlight the text w/mouse to copy, then middle (or both) mouse button(s) to paste. Maybe I've misunderstood what you mean. -- NAME : Adam Allen.
