To save your contacts from Outlook to a CSV file:

  • Select File -> Import and Export... from the menu.
  • Make sure Export to a file is highlighted.
  • Click Next >.
  • Now make sure Comma Separated Values (Windows) is selected.
  • Click Next > again.
  • Highlight the Contacts folder.
  • Click Next >.
  • Use the Browse... button to specify a location and file name for the exported contacts. Something like "Outlook.csv"  on your Desktop should work fine.
  • Click Next > (once more).
  • Now click Finish.

 You can now import your Outlook contacts into other email programs such as Mac OS X Mail, for example.
