I want to share this tip because I have been looking for this solution for over a year and a half. I have posted this problem several times during this period on all kind of different forums but nobody knew the answer. A company called softhing.com
has a product on the market called Outlook email Archive. We receive orders as emails in Outlook express on Imacs (yeah dumb thing it isn't submitted into a dbase and also as plain email, but hey I didn't decide that). All our client data is copied from an email into a filemaker pro database.
But I have about 7000 emails left from before we started working with filemaker and damn they are valuable as a marketing tool. But what to do ??? Copy paste 7000 emails??? So far this was the only option but nobody ever felt like doing the job. BUT HERE IS THE SOLUTION. Outlook email Archive converts all emails to tab text wich you can import into filemaker. It is shareware (you can use it without paying anything) to register costs $ 15. I suggest anybody using the software to register.
I'm not working for softhing and are not paid by them in any way for posting this tip. G'luck with softhing.
