Does it exist some wizard/procedure to migrate the file(s) of OutLook to OPERA Mail, the same way there is an import procedure from other mail systems (Eudora, Outlook Express,...). I've seen no option for Outlook.
Thank you for the info.

You have to have a converter that converts Outlook's folder files (pst files I guess) to mbox files so that Opera can import them.

For example, see how you convert Outlook Express' dbx files:

and how you import those converted files into Opera:

http://shadow2531.com/opera/wiki/How to Import POP Messages and Retain Folder Structure - Mail Client ( M2 ) - Opera Wiki.mhtml

Or, you can import from Outlook to Windows Live Mail or Thunderbird and then import from them. See these two links for examples:

http://shadow2531.com/opera/wiki/How to Import POP Messages from Windows Live Mail - Mail Client ( M2 ) - Opera Wiki.mhtml

http://shadow2531.com/opera/wiki/How to Import POP Messages from Thunderbird and Retain Folder Structure - Mail Client ( M2 ) - Opera Wiki.mhtml

(Open the files locally to read them if your browser doesn't render remote web page archives)

Thank you for the answer, I guess this is the right and only answer. I'm trying to find something which could convert directly from pst to mbox files since from Outlook to Windows Live Mail only seems to work with Outlook Express (I use Outlook).
I'm presently looking at MessageSave which seems to be able to do the job ; I must try it before deciding (30 days free trial or you buy it).

Yes, surely there is method available to migrate from Outlook to Opera mail. I would suggest opting for a professional PST to MBOX converter software like Stellar Outlook PST to MBOX converter. By using this software you will get several other options to convert PST file to MBOX format that is supported by Netscape, Thunderbird, Eudora etc.

You can try PST Extractor Pro. Convert Microsoft Outlook (PST) to mbox file format.

Yes, there are many solutions available over the internet to migrate file from Outlook to Opera Mail.I was also searching the solution for the same. Finally I found this link: http://www.bitrecover.com/blog/convert-outlook-to-opera-mail/. This blog helped me in converting Outlook email files to Opera Mail. Give it a try at least for once and I am sure this will solve your issues too.

I can try this ofcourse.
But wish to know if the imported folders will show all those 'folders and sub-folders and sub-sub folders' as such ???
