How to transfer from Outlook to Gmail?
I can't find a decent suggested method for moving from outlook to Gmail, anyone done it or know a good guide?
I don't mean outlook.com, outlook as in the windows installed version, a .pst file.
Really want to import everything, folders, contact and so on. My wife is finally making the move away from Microsoft.

It does say for Google Apps, though I imagine you wouldn't have a problem by just using gmail.com as the domain. Worth a shot.
Offt, no idea how I missed that, thanks.

Add your gmail account in Outlook as IMAP, then, move the folders to your IMAP folder.
This is what I ended up doing, took about 3 hours for everything to move, but it was a painless process.
Add both accounts to Thunderbird then select all your emails and drag and drop.
More steps than my suggestion.
