Default Import MSN local folders to Outlook Live

I am upgrading from MSN to Outlook Live.

How do I import the MSN folders stored on my local drive ?

I can create a MSNBAK file, but I can't see how to import this or change it
into a PST.

If I move the contents of a local folder to a MSN folder, the received dates
of the messages are all overwritten by "todays date".

Any suggestions ?

thanks,

Oscar.

Are these folder in some MSN-supplied mail application? Have you asked MSN
how, since you pay them for support?

Oscar,

Search for a folder called db. All of the MSN information will be in that
folder.
