No Import option for outlook 2011 in Apple mail

[WilliamWal]

I am in immediate need to transfer all my emails from outlook 2011 to apple mail. But when I select the import option in apple mail, outlook 2011 is not there in options.

The other options i could see are of Entourage.
So is there no compatibility in mac mail for outlook 2011??

Is there is any way to do this transfer or you can say migration of emails, I will be very grateful.
Thank you for your support.

You can easily do that, if you think from the opposite direction: Export your mail from Outlook to create your mail in .mbox format. Mac's Mail will easily use that .mbox format for importing.
Here's one simple method to do that.

You can use an intermediary IMAP server, or simply create corresponding folders in Finder and drag and drop the messages from within Outlook to that folder. Then you can import to Mail from those folders/files.

Or You may have to use 3rd party tool to perform this operation.

Thank you for help. Olm converter pro was every bit the application I needed.
I also appreciate the imap account transfer procedure but its a long and hectic one.
On the other hand olm converter pro did the same job so quickly, saving all the content and the folders hierarchy too.
