One quick imap/Exchange question

Now that I have backed up my email locally via an imap account I am going to
convert it over to an exchange account... I have a quick link that auto
congifures my Outlook 2007 for the Exchange account but how do I go about
uploading the emails ( and the sub-folder structure they are contained in)
from the old account up to the Exchange account?
 
Configure both accounts in Outlook with the Exchange account as the default
and then simply move all your mail from one folder to the other.
 
Is it the same mailbox? Unless the conversion deletes your mail, you wont
need to restore it to the server. If you do, drag from the imap folders to
Exchange - if you use subfolders, you can drag the folder to move
everything.

Thanks everyone.... I didn't realize it would be that easy.
