I found a Microsoft Knowledge Base Article that deals with this issue for OE
5, but I am not sure if it is applicable to OE 6.

The KB link is he http://support.microsoft.com/kb/257499

That will work, but have a look at these also:

Yes,for now. But it would like to know how to transfer files at regular
intervals between the 2 computers which are networked side-by-side, as I am
using one computer as a "temporary backup" while I reformat and clean off the
1st computer that has the emails.

You can swap dbx files back and forth using the method in the last paragraph
under OE on this page: www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx

Alternatively my OEX program (www.oehelp.com/OEX/) allows one to point to a
message store on another machine and import the messages across the network.
