Migrating from WLM to Outlook - grrrrr

[AUinHsv 584]

And nothing is working the way the how-to's say.  I don't think my personal email is that complicated but it sure isn't working. Opened both

WLM and Outlook (had to create an acocunt to do this - called it AUinHSV). Exported email from WLM. I had two email account (called it A and B)  Shows up fine except I know have

three inboxes - AUinHSV and 1 and 2.  Erased and tried again - created two accounts in Outlook - A and B.  Export created two more A and B under them.

At this point I am ready to forget migration and just create two new accounts. I used POP so it will download a few hundred emails and I can recreate the WLM folders.

Am I missing something here? In WLM I can have two independent accounts - it seems like Outlook has an umbrella account with these under it but even then it wants to

download all the emails to the parent account

Consider getting an Office 365 email account. Worth $7-$8 per month.

I just gave up on moving old folders over. If you export email from wlm and have a pop account you don't get folders. If you import them you

get the messages twice. Spent an hour or so and just recreated folders and moved stuff to them.
