Question As my previous email client, I used Microsoft Outlook. How can I import my old email and contacts from Outlook? Answer Evolution cannot import these files directly into Evolution because the .pst format is a proprietary format, and access to it requires the use of the MAPI.DLL library, which can only be read by applications running in Windows. However, there are two applications that can convert the files for you: Outport and Mozilla. You will be running these applications under Windows and we cannot guarantee that they will work, nor can we support them. You can also export address information to CSV format and then convert it to a format that Evolution understands.
