Status: VERIFIED FIXED

I use Outlook 2000 for my internet email at home.

I was thinking of switching to N6 once it shipped.  So today I check out the 3
November Mozilla Nightly.  I ran the import wizard.  It imported everyting.  But
it imported everything into a seperate "Local Folder" instead of into my actual
email acount.

Second, I cannot move messages from the Outlook mail account to my
[e-mail] mail account.

Third, I cannot delete the Outlook mail account at all.  The option is greyed out.

1. After importing Outlook Mail it creates what appears to be another account 
called "Outlook" but behaves similar to Local Folders. It's just a holding place 
for Mail. Bug# 82485 is an RFE which requests the import process to capture all 
the account information, mail structure and mail messages in one step.

2. I was able to move and copy Outlook Mail to another account (i.e. POP 
account).

3. I am able to delete the Outlook Mail account.

Since item #1 is covered in bug# 82485 and items #2 and #3 are fixed, I am 
marking this bug as Verified Fixed.
