Hiii Ron_Young,


I believe u are not that much aware about internet marketing and about the tools, softwares which are available online to perform and execute the process of OLM to PST migration. However you can try this OLM converter tool which has numerous exclusive attributes to convert folders like Inbox, Outbox, Sent/Received Date etc. and even has the ability to import OLM files into individual Calendars, Contacts, Tasks, Mails etc.


Try using this http://www.olmtopstconverterfree.blogspot.in/

That program is (a) for Windows only and (b) not free, pease check more carefully before suggesting it.

Seeing as you already have asked the easiest and best way to implement this conversion task; so suggesting you to for manual operation won’t be appropriate besides the IMAP function is yet another composite one. Accordingly for an improved Mac OLM to PST Conversion together with Mac OLM to EML and MSG Conversion you can make use of this OLM Converter Software’s Free Demo Edition too; in view of the fact that the utility is supported by Windows 8 with Outlook 2013 which turns out to be the recent versions reachable online. This makes it all versions supportive of Windows & Outlook as a whole.

There is one more way to transfer mails from mac to windows. This is little bit take short time from imap.

Sometimes imap can not synchronous.


1 - Open a folder on desktop then drag and drop mails from outlook to folder on your mac.

2 - Copy folder to your xp, open outlook express, drag and drop mails from folder to outlook express's folder.

3 - Export mails to pst.


Success

The site you linked to does a good job of disguising the fact that this software also costs $99.00, but not good enough.


Post the price next time, stop pretending that it is free.
