I use 98SE and OE6, and I'm planning on doing a full install of XP Pro. I
need to back up my messages in OE, and I have several different email
accounts. When I try to use the export function it fails because it can't
initialize MAPI. I don't use Outlook or Exchange. Is there a way to export
messages so I can add them back after I finish the OS install? Thanks in
advance for any help offered.
