In the new Identity, go to File | Import | Messages and point to the
Identity on the E drive and import it that way. Otherwise you can manually
import individual dbx files as described he
www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#imp1

You probably have duplicates now and my OEX program (www.oehelp.com/OEX/)
will remove those.

What has happened is my parents have got a new harddrive. Instead of
transfering their mail accross, they just created a new ID, so what has
happened is, the previous email is sitting on drive e: and now new mail is
sitting on drive c:, as new mail has come in.

What I have done, is restored the previous emails into the main identity
and
so that it didn't overwrite what new mail had been downloaded, I moved all
the mail into a new folder, called new inbox and new deleted and new sent
items. Great!....but now I cannot for the life of me manage to merge
them!
I have now got heaps of dbx files called new inbox etc, from trying
different
things, however, when I copy it across to the Main identity, it is all
there,
in the folder, but I just cannot seem to access it. There are files in
there, as they range in size one is 3.851KB.

So what I need to know is, how the heck do I retrieve these emails???

Thanks in advance!
