I've searched the forum and am concluding I may be stuck.  But I want to ask and confirm if that conclusion is correct.

I'm running Outlook 2011 for Mac and the entire system had to be rebuilt.  I *was* able to save all the data in the Microsoft User Data folder.  So I have all my archived emails from before the rebuild.  (And there are a ton.)

I'm concluding from previous posts here that importing those into the new Outlook instance is very difficult.....if not impossible.  Is that *really* the case?  Seriously?  I saved all those messages and they're basically useless?

Thanks.

Jim
