Default Upgrading from Outlook Express 6 SP1 to Outlook 2003 SP2

Its not a "contacts" problem per se. He said the exported emails to Outlook
were missing the email addresses in the messages themselves.

Make sure any antivirus software is turned off and try the export and import
again.

First, it is not an upgrade. Outlook and Outlook Express have no relation
to each other except a shared name.

Exporting the emails from OE to Outlook works best as you have learned. As
for the contacts problem, someone else will need to tackle that. Have you
imported the Outlook Express Contacts from Outlook's File-Import menu?

| Hi,
|
| I am trying to upgrade my users from OE 6SP1 to Outlook 2003 SP2 and
| I get 2 problems:
|
| If I import from Outlook 2003 certain messages get a wrong received
| date.
|
| If I export from OE6SP1 I cannot reply to saved emails. The email
| address is gone, only the name remaining.
|
| Any safe way to upgrade?
|
| Thanks
