: Open such a message in OE and click File | Save As and save it to your thumb

I am used to the process you have described, but this is useful to take individual e-mails and save one at a time. I am still
looking for a process to move the whole inbox .dbx file, and open it using the Outlook Express (of course, using my own password)..
