Short answer: I don't know.

Longer answer: I assume Outlook does IMAP. You could probably copy your
Outlook-kept messages to an IMAP account, and then from there copy them
to either a Claws-Mail mailbox, or my favorite, to your own IMAP server
set up and run by you.

Here's some information about how I bailed from Kmail and went to the
Claws-Mail/Dovecot setup I described in the latter part of the
preceding paragraph:
