Someone else in this news group (Patty Winter) recently did the same
thing. And it seems an application called Emailchemy gave the best
results. Read this thread for details:

<https://groups.google.com/d/topic/comp.sys.mac.apps/1zns2VU-wr8/discussion>

I've used Emailchemy in the past for converting messages from Outlook
to Apple Mail with great results as well.

Emailchemy is available here:
