Only the last modified date is changed when you import/export pst to pst. Sent and received dates are not touched. If you are moving from OE/Mail/Live mail and use Outlook's Import command, then the received (and last mod) date is changed - use export from OE instead. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com/ Outlook Tips by email: mailto:dailytips-subscribe-request(a)lists.outlooktips.net EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: mailto:EMO-NEWSLETTER-SUBSCRIBE-REQUEST(a)PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM Do you sync your mailbox with a smartphone or pda? http://forums.slipstick.com/showthread.php?t=39473

If you were to have actually done this, as we can tell that Peter has NOT done this, you would know that Export and Import work fine and without corruption across the different versions of outlook. -- You can't trust your best friends, your five senses, only the little voice inside you that most civilians don't even hear -- Listen to that.
