trouble importing mail from netscape 7.2

Hmm ... how did you convert the files?

The folderfiles of Netscape have MBX-Format. You should simply copy that files (not the msf - only the folderfiles with no extension) somewhere else, rename the files, so that they have the extension ".mbx" and point Pegasus to that folder. That's all. Pegasus should show you a list of folders and you may move the mails in to folders in Pegasus-format.
