What’s wrong with IMAP?

This will work if you have an older version of Thunderbird, but the newer version does not import the files as .MBOX files. You can change the extension of the file it does save it to, but that can be troublesome if you have many folders and subfolders in your .pst file. However, the utility you mentioned works great. I have been using it for a few years now.

Ehh, may I suggest you install Thunderbird (free) on the Windows computer, while setting it up you'll get the option to Import stuff (messages, accounts & contacts) from Outlook Express/Outlook. This results in Thunderbird being filled with your Outlook (express) stuff. Copy the resulting files (from the Thunderbird profile) (these are now MBOX FORMAT!) to the mac and start importing…
Just not sure what happens with tasks and/or calendar items. Maybe not be a complete migration as per the mentioned app, but it may get most info over to your mac without buying an util that should M$ should have made in the first place!
