Email and Contacts folders?
I transferred my email messages and contacts from Outlook Express on Windows
XP to Outlook. When this didn't preserve my folder structure I tried transferring to Windows Live Mail on Windows 7. All of the information transferred but NONE of the folders. I had all my contacts divided up into appropriate folders and the same for my email messages. Is there a way to transfer this information and maintain the folder structure I created? Thanks. |

I've never used Outlook, so I my not be of much help, but if I had 50
folders in OE that lost their structure, I could drag them all back where they belong in a few minutes. Can you not do this in Outlook? Maybe you could get a hint from that forum.

Thanks for the response Bruce. The folder structure for my contacts is
still intact in Outlook Express (Windows Address Book) but when I transfer the contacts to Windows Live Mail (or Outlook 2010) it transfers the contacts but they are no longer in the dozens of different folders I had them in. Is there some step I could be missing? "Bruce Hagen" wrote in message ...

Thanks, Peter. I didn't even think to check Outlook. Didn't think that
would be first to go. @"David Gondek". If you need Outlook Assistance, you'll need to go here now.

Folders do not export or import.
