Outlook on a Mac

[jfwilson]

Anyone used Outlook on a Mac?  Is it available?  Are there problems with it?

How about moving a PC's Outlook e-mail to a Mac?  Is this possible?  Can the Mac "read" the PC's .pst files?

Outlook on a Mac is not available, but you can import your Outlook info into either Entourage (the mac-equivalent of outlook, available as part of Office for Mac) or Apple's native Mail program, and yes, you can also deal with .pst files...

For lots of info, see the folliwing URL at MacWindows:

You could also run Virtual Box and install Windows and Outlook.

Many mac users would indeed rejoice were Entourage  'the mac-equivalent of Outlook'! Astoundingly, MS Entourage can't read MS Outlook .pst files. [Ref: www.entourage.mvps.org/import_export/pst.html] 

Fortunately, as mentioned, there are workarounds -- many are variations on using IMAP and a 3rd-party IMAP server like gmail's, to convert the .pst files. While I've seen positive references to the $10 Little Machines' Outlook2Mac PC utility, I haven't yet given it a try.
