    There is a free way... but its a bit complicated. You need to import the email into another mail clients like thunderbird. Thunderbird can import PST (outlook) files and Entourage can import thunderbird files (mbox).

    I did the switch, but it wasn't easy. I finally had to export as a csv file, then import it. But during the import process entourage brings up a dialog box that asks you to match the different catagories to what you want, i.e. you have to drag the field name from Outlook 03 to Entourage. I went to Borders and read the book by David P (I can't remember the last name, but it's there) about the Missing Manual, switching from Windows to the Mac. It was extremely helpful.
    It was the one hair-pulling incident of the whole switching process. Other than that, it was a snap.
    Good luck
