Sometimes I have found AV and malware utilities have to be disabled also.  Outside 
of that, I haven't had many issues with either OE or Outlook when importing if I 
know the files are good and the program isn't damaged or protected in some way.  
Post back if the KB article doesn't help..  I personally haven't run across this 
without a warning posted but it is possible that on a different system you would 
have to take possession of the file to remove any (hidden) security.  Usually not 
an issue but possible between NTFS formated drives on different Windows installs, 
even when coming from the same hardware..

Sadly, due to the type of format the files are in and how they are constructed/built, 
(they are actually files residing inside of a host file in essence, and proprietary 
to MS) and maintained differently than common file structures so the import process 
has to be used for any merging or new file additions to the program.  Good Luck!
