You first need to purchase Outlook to install on another machine. The current version is Outlook 2007($100-110 depending upon source..e.g. Staples)

This site has links on transferring content in either direction.

Note: Outlook stores all content in a single pst file, OE uses individual files for each(inbox, address etc) and a special folder to maintain the hiearchy when displayed in OE.

OL allows export of an individual folder(e.g Contacts to a *.csv file) which can be imported to the OE address book

Note: Exporting from OL to OE will only resolve the 'some messages' problem until the next mail retreival in either program. If you wish to operate both, then one application needs to be instructed to leave mail on the server. Leaving mail on the server is usually restricted to a pop3 account instead of an http account.
