We're going to attempt to do this tonight. We have no idea how to do it.

Before we're lost to the WWW completely can anyone tell me how best to do this? We're currently operating on Firefox and Entourage for our mail options.

Also what about transferring the other stuff (like photos and documents?).

You can do this using Migration Assistant, which is in Utilities in the Applications folder. To do this it's preferable to have a firewire cable. If it's not too late pop back on here and I'll tell you more. Otherwise you can transfer just the mail by copying the "Microsoft User Data" folder in your Documents folder to the corresponding place on the other Mac.

You can do the same with your whole User folder- put it into Users in the other Mac, but as I say let me know if you are still attempting this and I'll drone on in more detail.
