Import: OE6 -> OL2002 Loses Email Dates!

Recurve

I recently upgraded to Office XP and thought I would try switching to full Outlook (2002, I think) from Outlook Express 6 (which I have been using for some years).

However, whenever I try to import my ~300MBs of Outlook Express .DBX files into Outlook XP, it resets the dates on about half the email messages to the current date.

This is a *huge* problem that will prevent me from using the product. Is anyone else (or better yet, Microsoft) aware of this? Thanks.
 
Did you import in Outlook? If so, try exporting from OE instead.
