Default Retrieving - Deleted Identiy

"Chris" wrote in message
rvers.com...
I accidentaly deleted one of the identities in OE6. I can see all the
files are still there, under:

c:\documents and settings\username\local settings\application
data\identities\{xxxxxxxx-48dc-42af
-8f45-2f48c0fexxxx}\microsoft\outlook express]

Is there any way I can restore the identity? I know I can create a new
account and import the email messages from the *.dbx files, but I want to
restore the accounts in that profile, the pointeers to all the newsgroups
I was following, etc.

Is that possible?

Thanks,
C.



Create a new Identity.
Set it up as before.
File | Import | Messages | Microsoft Outlook Express 6 | Import mail from an
OE6 store directory.
Browse to the folder you found the old message storese (dbx files), select
it, then finish up the import.
