I have just bought a new laptop which is Vista based, I have copied
everything over without a problem, all files, folders, favourites, all
e-mail accounts but I can't get to move all my e-mails.

I have done as many times before copied them on to a pen drive from my
other PC then copied them in to a file on the new laptop then gone to
import messages, browsed for the folder which its found but it does not
seem to recognise the e-mails which are in "dbx" Is this a Vista v WinXP
issue or am I doing something wrong ?? Its as if Vista does not recognise
the dbx files ?

Any help welcome.

Dave.
