I want to only use GNail, not Outlook, anymore.
I need help carrying old Outlook emails into GMail. I have imap'ed GMail into Outlook, but when I go to drag the Outlook folders into GMail, Outlook freezes.
Any ideas appreciated. I am running Outlook 2010.

Tina, I actually have not been able to solve this problem. I don't have Google Apps (which apparently would make it VERY easy) and have no reason to get it. I even tried moving my outlook emails into Thunderbird first, and then to Gmail - through the same IMAP process as Outlook. This got Outlook e-mails to GMail but the text was unreadable and the sender's names were all 'uknown.' This is very frustrating! Any ideas appreciated.Running Windows 7, Outlook 2010.
