| Re: Importing from Outlook PST to Gmail - Unknown Sender | mathieu.chateau | 6/30/09 7:45 AM | Hello, I have the same issue. My understanding is that the Google webmail read sender from smtp header of mails. Mail sent through exchange from internal to internal doesn't have smtp header, as it stayed inside the orgs. Mail sent from someone outs |
| Re: Importing from Outlook PST to Gmail - Unknown Sender | Aquitaine | 6/30/09 10:07 AM | I've never received email from anyone via an internal Exchange server, though. All of the (Unknown Sender) emails are regular old emails. It's over 3,000 of them (out of about 7000 total) and the older I go, the more likely they are to show up that w |
| Re: Importing from Outlook PST to Gmail - Unknown Sender | dale.hughes | 7/14/09 1:45 PM | I also have this issue, and would like a solution. However I do have a large number of internal emails, that I need to retain To and From label information, even if the email link is invalid. |
| Re: Importing from Outlook PST to Gmail - Unknown Sender | Bryan.Brookessmith | 7/24/09 7:28 AM | I have the same problem and have around 15GB of e-mails I'm archiving, but I am slightly relieved by the fact that IMAP client display them correctly, as this means the data is all still there, if only GMail would display it correctly too. Maybe we |

| Re: Importing from Outlook PST to Gmail - Unknown Sender | redleman100 | 7/31/09 6:11 AM | I am testing Google Apps Sync for Oulook. My sync is coming from an Exchange Server. I do have the problem with the Gmail side having (unknown sender). So the Google sync method has the same problem. |

| Re: Importing from Outlook PST to Gmail - Unknown Sender | dircery | 8/28/09 11:42 PM | I found a partial solution. I tried copying first via my home outlook 2003 which is not connected to the exchange server. This produced the same results as above. I tried it again this time from my work outlook 2007 which is on the exchange server. T |
| Re: Importing from Outlook PST to Gmail - Unknown Sender | WestLABoy | 10/3/09 3:24 PM | To add to the discussion... I had some success using Outlook's IMAP capabilities to copy over emails. It almost seemed as if the emails I initially downloaded using Outlook needed to be copied using Outlook, but those I initially downloaded using ot |

| Re: Importing from Outlook PST to Gmail - Unknown Sender | dale.hughes | 7/2/10 11:10 PM | This whole issue completely sucks to say the least. I want to use gmail as my only email account, yet there seems to be no way to transfer email from one of the most popular email clients to date (Outook). I have tried direct IMAP transfer from Outl |
| Re: Importing from Outlook PST to Gmail - Unknown Sender | Ralf Haring | 11/7/10 11:56 AM | I am trying to import emails from a PST and am experiencing this problem as well.

What I entered manually in the header is ["First Last" ^first...@name.com^] with angle brackets (greater than and less than signs) instead of carets around the email address. Hope this formatting |
