143956 - The import procedure fails to import Outlook Express messages

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(MailNews Core :: Import, defect)

Description

[Cyril Sorokin]

When importing Outlook Express mail some folders do not contain messages though
they were imported (the import log showed them and the files really do hold the
message bodies) Entering some of the imported folders hang Mozilla.

After a more thorough check I found that the messages are imported correctly, 
but the .msf files are corrupt. Deleting them did not help.
Tried importing on Netscape 6.2, as they share the mail accounts (Am I right?), 
but the Mozilla mail client did not catch the netscape-imported folders.

Reporter, does it work for you with the latest mozilla build? The problem does 
sound like bug 58206. If it still does not work for you, is it possible for you 
to email me some sample OE msgs so that I can take a look at it? Thanks.

I have this problem with Mozilla 1.6 on Windows 2000 with Outlook Express 6.0.

(Why can't I reopen this bug?!)
