Appreciate your views on my problem....I've taken your advice and downloaded Thunderbird. Busy downloading messages. Thanks again for pointing me in this direction. Chris

Thanks for that - did not know it was discontinued. The about of stuff I've read about it I would have thought I'd fell upon someone else mentioning that

That does sound right about searching for EML to MBS. That certainly rings a bell with me - I'll look into that - Cheers

I'm new to Opera but do like the lay out and feel of the email software. Without looking stupid, what other file format does Opera mail read. I think that's how I found the free software converter last time. I believe I didn't search for "EML to MBOX converter". I'm now sure I searched for another file format that Opera reads. Thanks

Thanks for the above - I've spent another 2 hours looking for the program I used. Frustrating I didn't make a note of it.

Hi

Inderstand this question would have been asked but I'm unable to find the answer. The only answer I can see are ones which point to paid services which I don't require.

I reset my friends laptop last year and found a free program which converts Windows Live Mail to Opera. The process was quick and easy and all his emails came through intact - aroun 40,000.

I've now decided to change email clients too and after 3 days of looking online I can't find the free program I used. I can't remember the name but believe I searched for ".eml to Mbox converter" - something like that.
Even looking on Youtube the guys on there state the programs are free but are actually affiliated links for paid software.

Can anyone link a free converter please. I see there are numerous paid for ones at around $30 or so but the program I did find worked perfectly so I know there are ones available (somewhere).

Thanks in advance
Chris
