    I cannot use File > Import to migrate my Outlook 2003 .PST file to Windows Live Mail.

    Error Message: "Messages cannot be imported from the MAPI client."

    I've already tried searching, but most of the common solutions don't apply to my situation.

    this will sound odd, but try importing your email from OUTLOOK, into OUTLOOK EXPRESS, and then from OUTLOOK EXPRESS into WINDOWS LIVE MAIL
