A way to import old Outlook emails into gmail

Finally! For me at least. I remember searching a few months back it seemed damn near impossible to get your outlook emails into Gmail. Turns out now it is not so hard.

This is great for many reasons. Outlook is essentially a giant turd and I’m currently phasing it out of my personal and business work flow to be replaced with Gmail and Thunderbird. Just feels better I dunno. As you already know if you’re a Gmail user it has an exceptional user interface. It took me a little while to fully appreciate Gmail’s approach to organizing email but with the addition of a few Google Labs (multiple inbox, custom colored labels, drag and drop sidebars, google docs, etc) and a custom colored theme I began to take it all in and it felt really nice. If you’re feeling stuck with Outlook give it a try I think you will be most pleased.
