Administering the Import Wizard

The Zimbra Import Wizard for Microsoft® Outlook® (Import Wizard) lets users import the contents of a .pst file from an Outlook mailbox to accounts on the Zimbra Collaboration Server (ZCS).

The Import Wizard imports email messages, filter rules, attachments, contacts, calendars, tasks, and personal distribution lists. When the files are imported, the Outlook folder hierarchy is maintained. If categories have been assigned to messages and contacts, these are converted to tags in the user’s ZCS mailbox.

Note:

The Import Wizard can import .pst files from Outlook 2000 and Outlook XP, provided that the Import Wizard is run on a machine with either Outlook 2003, Outlook 2007, or Outlook 2010 installed.

Note:

A 64-bit operating system is supported if the system running the migration tools has a 32-bit version of the email client installed.

Note:

If you set your computer’s regional settings to a language other than English (United States), the Import Wizard might fail. Your regional settings are located on your computer at Control Panel>Regional and Language Options.
