Migrating mail from MS Outlook to Gnus

[address@hidden]

Hi.

I want to migrate my mail from Microsoft Outlook 2000 to emacs Gnus.
In gnus FAQ it is suggested to tell my old mail program to export the messages
in mbox format (finding tools for that at http://mbx2mbox.sourgeforce.net)
and then to import this mbox file into Gnus.
>From the above site I downloaded the file mbx2mbox-0.34.tar.gz and installed 
>the
package,
but didn't manage to convert mbx into mbox format. Here are the steps I did:

1) Within MS Outlook, I did:
   File > import and export > export into a file > dBase
   , then selected a folder and saved it with the name myfile.mbx.

2) I downloaded mbx2mbox-0.34.tar.gz from 
   http://mbx2mbox.sourceforge.net
   and copied into my ~/tmp dir. Then I did:

   # urpmi Manip

   $ cd ~/tmp

   $ tar xzvf mbx2mbox-0.34.tar.gz

   $ cd mbx2mbox-0.34

   $ perl Makefile.PL

   $ make

   $ make test

   # make install

   , and mbx2mbox seemed to install successfully.

3) I did:

   $ mbx2mbox myfile.mbx

   , but the file 'myfile' which was produced is empty.

Any suggestion?

Thanks,
Rodolfo
