Extra Tip 1: File and folder selection

The easiest way to get source files for the conversion

The second part of this chapter describes the technical aspects of finding IncrediMail Message Store location. If you experiencing a technical difficulties you may use the following method:

  1. Run IncrediBackup program (IncrediMail data backup software).
  2. Create backup of the IncrediMail Identity which you would like to convert using our software.
  3. Rename the backup file *.ibk file to have a ZIP extension.
  4. Extract the content of the backup ZIP file.
  5. Use the patch to the Message Store directory in your extracted backup as a source folder for our software.

Click here to skip the technical part about IncrediMail data files location.

For those, who familiar with Identity

Every data conversion or migration operation starts with defining the location of the source data. In some cases, this is a simple and straightforward task – the data are stored in a single sub-folder of the program installation folder or a database that can be easily identified and opened for data extraction. However, things do not always work the way we want. Email client software developers, willingly or unknowingly, create complex data structures, decentralize data storages and turn the initial collection of source files into a painstaking, if at all possible, endeavor.

As a key rule, our programs automatically determine the location of the source files, and you don’t have to worry about it. However, some situations require that you do it manually – for instance, if the source files were copied to a computer where the corresponding email application has never been installed; or if multiple identities/user profiles confuse the program and require user involvement.

This said, we recommend using the automatic feature first and then proceeding to manual folder selection in case it fails for one of the reasons described above.

The default folder for IncrediMail 2.x data files is:

C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Local\IM\Identities\[Identity_ID]\Message Store\

Attachments are stored in a subfolder:

C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Local\IM\Identities\[Identity_ID]\Message Store\Attachments\

WHERE:

[Username] – Is your user name in the system
[Identity_ID] – the bunch of random symbols related to IncrediMail identity

IMPORTANT: Application Data folder is usually hidden by the system. If you want to open it, you may need to configure Files Explorer to show the  hidden content. Alternatively you may enter %LOCALAPPDATA% into the address field of the File Explorer as it shown on the picture below:

Opening APPDATA folder in Files Explorer

Extra Tip 2: Exit IncrediMail Completely

You have to exit IncrediMail prior to start the conversion otherwise source database and other files will remain opened and locked by IncrediMail. This may cause the access violation problem. It is not enough to click X sign in the right top corner of the email application, to completely exit IncrediMail. You have to click by the right mouse button to the IncrediMail tray icon and choose Exit in the appeared pop-up menu. Only after that you may convert IncrediMail emails without interruptions.

Exit IncredImail IncrediMail try menu to Exit the email client

Important! Ensure that IncrediMail is not running prior to start the conversion. IncrediMail should be completely unloaded from the computer memory. It is not enough to collapse the IncrediMail window by clicking Close. To unload it you must right click to the tray icon and use Exit menu.

Method 2: Export IncrediMail to Outlook Manually

This manual method to export IncrediMail to Outlook allows you to migrate from one mail client to another using a rather simple (although time-consuming) procedure. Here is how you can do this, step by step:

Step 1: Export Emails from IncrediMail to the EML format

IncrediMail is somewhat limited in exporting options, but you still can extract IncrediMail emails to the EML format. The EML file format is a universally accepted way to store email messages, many email clients can open this format.

Here is what you need to do.

    1. Start IncrediMail as usual.
    2. Click the mailbox (identity) you want to export, and the folder (for example, Inbox).
    3. Select the emails in the list that you want to export. You can use Ctrl+A to select all the emails or hold Shift or Ctrl keys to select multiple messages.
    4. Open the File > Save As menu. This will open the “Save as” dialog.
    5. Provide the filename for the exported messages and make sure the destination format is set to “eml”.
    6. Click the “Save” button.

This procedure will recover IncrediMail emails and save them to the provided EML files.

Step 2: Import EML to Outlook

Now, you simple add the resulting EML file acquired during the first step of this method to Outlook. You have two ways to do this: A) drag’n’drop the EML file to Outlook’s window, or B) make Outlook the default way to open EML. Let’s see both.

Using the drag and drop method to migrate IncrediMail to Outlook

This method requires the desktop version of Microsoft Outlook to be installed on your computer, but it should work with Outlook of any contemporary version: Outlook 2010, 2016, 2019.

    1. Start Outlook on your desktop computer.
    2. In Outlook, create a new folder. This folder will contain the imported emails from IncrediMail.
    3. Open the folder where you saved the EML file exported from IncrediMail.
    4. Use your mouse to drag the EML file to Outlook’s window, then drop the file to the folder you want.

This will make Outlook to load the contents of the EML file and add the email messages contained in it to the Outlook folder.

Needless to say, if you have multiple files, dragging them one by one to Outlook is a bit too much of manual work. However, if you only need to import only so many emails from IncrediMail to Outlook, the drag’n’drop method is very doable.

Make Outlook the default client to open EML files

Another way to import IncrediMail EML to Outlook is to assign this file type to MS Outlook to make the software open such files by default. Note that since version 2010, Outlook automatically opens EML files when you click them, so you only need to do this if you are using older versions of Outlook.

Here is how to make Outlook 2003 or 2007 the default app to open EML files:

Open the Default Application settings dialog. The way you do this depends on the Windows operating system:

    • On Windows 7: Open Start menu, select Default Program, select Associate a file type or protocol with a program.
    • On Windows 8: Open Start menu, then type: Default Programs, select Associate a file type or protocol with a program
    • On Windows 10: Open Start menu, choose “Settings > Apps > Default Apps > Choose Default apps by file type”.
    1. In the file type association window, find the EML extension and click it.
    2. Click the “Change program” button above the list.
    3. In the popup window, select Outlook as the way you want to open these files.

Now, you can simply click the EML files exported from IncrediMail and Outlook will automatically open them.

Conclusion on the manual method to convert IncrediMail to Outlook

While being simple, the manual method requires certain steps to do before you can apply the method. Also, it is not advisable to manually execute IncrediMail transfer to Outlook if you have thousands of emails structured into hierarchy of folders.

Surely, there are better (and automatic) ways to fulfill IncrediMail export to Outlook.

Hola, soy de Perú, ¿aún se puede convertir incredimail a pst?

Yes, it is still possible to convert IncrediMail emails into a PST file.

Est-il possible de convertir les messages IncrediMail vers d’autres clients de messagerie avec votre programme ? Je vois qu’une option possible est de convertir en fichiers EML, qui peuvent être importés dans Thunderbird, par exemple. Mais la manière de les importer n’est pas mentionnée dans ces instructions.

Following article describes how to import EML files into Thunderbird folder using different methods including drag-n-drop:

Will this transfer of data from Incredimail to Outlook work with the free Outlook or must I purchase standalone Outlook. I have done the transfer 32bit to the free Outlook but am now getting the message – ERR: New Session Create Error: IClassFactory.CreateInstance returned 0x80070002
Could you please give me any advice.

By free Outlook you mean outlook.com Web service? The web service is server side application, it is not accepting the email import. You may install standalone Outlook version from your Microsoft account. Even trial version will work. Here is how…

When i run the program i get this message: Incredimail 2.0 Identity Selected identity created bby incredimail 2.0 You may convert this identity using another converter. What am i doing wrong?

It is always good idea to read the instruction. If you have IncrediMail 2.0 you should use another converter. Both converters are available for download from the software usage guide.

My server is earthlink.net. I want to keep it. Will I lose all my emails if I don’t transfer Incredimail to Outlook? I want to continue using earthlink for sending & receiving emails.

Earthlink email address was provided to you by your Internet Service provider. There is nothing common with the email transferring and your email address will not be affected. Please don’t confuse the conversion of your messages with your email address (email account).

Thanks! I exported IncrediMail to EML folders. FYI, WLM or Windows Live Mail has an import feature. Click “File” and “Import Messages” then browse to the EML folder created from IncrediMail. It worked! Messages and attachments were imported into Live Mail. Your product and support is top notch. Kudos to you and your Company.

when i click scan, four identies pop up. I dont know why, but do I select the latest one?

You have to select an actual one.

will this work also at eMclient?!

You may export IncrediMail emails to EML files and then import these EML files into eM Client, the similar instruction is available for Thunderbird.

VIDEO TUTORIAL PLEASE!! URGENT!! ONLY 20 DAYS FOR CHANGE!! BAD BAD BAD!!

Although I am fairly good in reading/writing in English, I prefer information and instructions in my mothertongue (Dutch).
I appreciate your attempts to have your (US) English text translated into Dutch.

However the translation does not make it easier to understand your explanations and what your instructions want us to do.
Sentences do not comply to Dutch language standards and even end imcomplete, leaving the reader with a lot of question marks.
Perhaps it may be a good idea to have your translated text reviewed by a knowledgeable person and supply the images and the text therein in the correct language?

We are sorry for the inconvenience, you are reading a Google-Translated text in Dutch language.
Please consider to use an English version of this document to avoid contradictions and discrepancies.

I followed the instructions the best I could. When opening outlook and expanding the “Incredimaiil to outlook Transfer” triangle, all the items are empty with a message “we didn’t find anything to show you”. I thought it was a bit quick to download about 15,000 emails – only a matter of seconds. I must be selecting the wrong folder although I have tried many of them.

Please use the brief instruction (click to the appropriate section to expand it) at the top of this page. You may create backup file and convert it to be sure that you using the proper identity. If something unclear please submit your support request using our contact form.

Dianne Behringer

I am like Mark and have used Incredimail for 20 years+ and I have a lot of emails in folders and subfolders that I want to save (including my partner’s emails…I lost him in 2010 so the emails are very precious to me). I am not a computer nerd or tech wizz…I just use the software that I buy according to instructions as much as I can. I have bought your software and it shows 3 message store folders in Incredimail. Will your software transfer all 3? I do not know how to use Outlook at all and can’t see how to create folders let alone find some that have been transferred…that is of course if they transfer in folder form as they are saved in Incredimail. Incredimail giving us 2 weeks notice of such a huge change is very unfair and very frustrating for us. So please be patient with us non-technical people.

Please use the brief instruction (click to the appropriate section to expand it) at the top of this page. You may create backup file and convert it to be sure that you using the proper identity. If something unclear please submit your support request using our contact form.

so I stopped using IncrediMail when it wouldn’t work on my newer computer. I did save my emails so I could one day open them. I didn’t have Outlook other than the free online version so I couldn’t open the file after downloading your transfer app. It says it found 5000+ and has safely put them in a folder. So I am doing a 30 day trial of 360 so I can at least see if I want any of the old emails. I followed the folder to open and it shows the Incredimail folder but no emails. not even the 10 for the trial. How do I see the 10?

Please read the article describing how to evaluate our software properly. When you open up PST file in Outlook it appears collapsed in Outlook folders tree, you have to click the triangle icon to expand the tree of subfolders to see teh imported emails and folders. Our trial tool places all imported items inside demo folder to not mix the demo result with actual emails that you have.

I use the old version 2.0 of incredimail, and it seems that your utility deals only the newer version 2.5
When I press “Scan Folder” button, the utility begins scanning, then it stops and the following message pops up:
[Converter can’t find any mailboxes in the selected location (source folder)]
Any suggestions?

Please read the software instruction. There are two tools available for download, one works with data files of IM 2.0 and another one works with modern format of IN 2.5 (IncrediMail Plus).

Good Afternoon.
I have the same problem described by Mark. Many years being a user of Incredimail, I have many emails separated in folders and subfolders, and many messages rules. I want to know if I will loose all this folders and subfolders when I transfer incredimail to Outlook or when the conversion is ended, all would be the same in Outlook as it was in incredimail. Thanks.

Hello, please read the software instruction, the most questions has been answered. If you still feel difficulties please submit your support request via our contact form. Please describe the problem detailed so we may assist you immediately.

Does the software work with incredmail 2.0

Please check the software instruction, it contains a chapter about conversion of the IncrediMail 2.0

Laurence Longmore

Holy s**t! How do you expect a non-technical person to do all of this and have it turn out ok? I am so angry at Incredimail for putting my years and years of email records at risk after I have been a dedicated and loyal user for so many years. They disgust me.

But why you didn’t even try? We are providing a very detailed instruction to describe each aspect of the email conversion. If you want a brief instruction, here you go: Run IncrediMail to Outlook Transfer and select the mode which you want to use in main menu called “Mode”, select a source folder if it was not detected by the program automatically, click Scan Folder button to find all source files, click third button (it changes the caption depending on selected mode – Import, Save PST or Save EML) choose Outlook or system folder to save emails and wait for the end of conversion. Isn’t that easy?
Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any difficulties.

I’ve been using Incredimail for many, many years! Currently, I have thousands of emails & messages all separated into separate folders & subfolder which is a great help. My issue is I have 3 emails–Gmail, Hotmail & Yahoo email — which IncrediMail collects emails & addresses from all 3 and is a GREAT time saver! But with your program, will it also fix any issues with Outlook? there’s no spell check or very weak, and making folders is a PITA (pain in the —). Outlook would say this folder is similar to another folder, Knowing this, is there a way to fix this or another email program that will catch spelling errors and allow you to make folders with similar names or subfolders without felling your have to fight the program to use it. Or not use it all. That’s why I haven’t used Outlook for MANY years. I got tired of the viruses & constant hassles of the program.

I want to download your program, transfer everything I have in Incredimail Plus, which is not listed on your Incredimail list, and transfer it all over to the next email program, be it Outlook, Gmail, or some of the others listed. I just can’t lose all these contact, folders & information.

Thanks for the help on this issue

Outlook has a lot of features and I bet you tried it a long time ago if you have such bad memories about it. Or probably you missing MS Office Outlook application and online outlook.com webservice which is not very useful and restricted. We are offering software which converts IncrediMail emails to Outlook data file which can be opened in MS Outlook application which is locally installed at your PC. Outlook.com webmail, Outlook 365 are not allowing to import emails and they are out of system requirements for our software. You may download trial version of MS Office here.
