Default How Transfer folders to new Identity

Hi,
I transferred my OE6 folders from an old machine using 'TransferMyPC' - all
worked OK except that on new PC I could not create new folders.

I read previous posts around this issue (thank you all) about creating a new
Identity.

So I did this and can now create new folders.
But how do I transfer all the existing hierarchy of folder across to the new
ident.
It does not allow me to drag&drop & I get a MAPI error when I try to export.

Thanks all for your help.

FileimportmessagesOE6 and point to the identity you want to import.
You can then delete the old ID.
Export only works for Outlook or Exchange, either of which have to be
installed for the export to work.
