This link might work for you:
How Can I Convert an Outlook Email Message into a Text File
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scr...5/hey1205.mspx

If not then I recommend you download the whole Scripting Guy file and check
it for other items that have the word "Outlook" inside.

Exporting it to text is of no use as importing it back is tiresome as it
doesn't exports as CSV and the import isn't direct and botchy at best(cuts
the names, choses name/last name wrong, etc).

i've already checked the scripting guy archive and there's nothing on
creating MAPI contacts, hence my question here, i have the first half which
is exporting, i need the rest now
