You could try Emailchemy which I've used to grab Mail, Entourage,
Outlook Express PC/Mac versions and convert them into something standard
that anything reputable email client can read. Well worth the fee ($25)
many times over, especially after yesterday it recovered an Entourage
database that had crept up and hit the 2gb limit so according to
Entourage it was hosed. Emailchemy grabbed the lot and so now the user
is in PowerMail with all her mail intact.
You can trial the software first and it will just set the subject
headers to "please buy me" so at least you know it works before you buy.
It also means you can trial in Tiger, move over to panther, if Mail
imports your database, fine, if it doesn't you know you've got the
fallback of Emailchemy then.
