Sigh! Shooting the messenger, are we?
If what I say is wrong, unjustified, whatever, then *say so* (and
*why*). Just saying "plonk" indicates you have no argument.
I hope that Steve will answer the questions (and *can* handle (IMO
justified) criticism).

Then try MBXtract on the message files. I think it will work for

prior to OE4. Just rename the message file to MBX so the program will
recognize it. Otherwise, the messages are in plain text as are the files
and you can open them with Notepad and cut and paste out the individual
messages. If you give them an eml file extension, then you can drag them
into an OE folder.

Why on earth would he do that? As I said, he can just import them into
OE 6.0. Why make things needlessly complex?
No offense, but this is the second [1] time you apparently haven't
read what you're responding to.
- If you don't want to respond to what people have written, then *don't
quote*.
- If you disagree with what they have written, then *say so*.
But just offering a needlessly complex alternative without (giving)
any reason doesn't make any sense and is quite irritating.
And for the previous case [1]:
- If you agree with what people have written, then *say so* instead of
just posting the exact same thing without any explanation. It suggests
that the quoted poster did not write what (s)he did write, which
amounts to misrepresentation.

There was no OE 3. The first version was OE4.
True, but perhaps Befuddled-1's friend has *"Internet Mail"*
3.something.
At Y2K, I had to convert from Internet Mail 3.01 to OE 5.0.
AFAICT, OE 6.0 can still import from Internet Mail (see the "Microsoft
Internet Mail for Windows 3.1" and "... (32-bit Version)" choices).
