Default Upgrade woe's

Hiya
I wonder if anyone can help. I recently on my old computer upgraded from
Window ME to XP Pro. When I opened Outlook Express all my old e-mails etc
were gone (doh). I can locate where that are stored but I am at a loss as
how to open them, or get OE to integrate them with the local folders. I
have then gone on to get a new computer running XP Home. I've put my old
hard drive in and again can still locate the old DBX files but unable to
open with anything meaningful to get at my old e-mails. I've also tried to
merge/move them into new folders where OE is now storing them, but they
simply rename themselves with a (1) after. Can anyone please advise.



Did you try File | Import?

Lost mail after upgrade to XP.
