Jim,
Thanks!

I got a good handle on the .IAF importing thanks to your instructions.

Regarding importing .DBX files:
To successfully import .DBX files, should I first creat those folder
names (via 'create new folder' option) in OE before importing the .DBX
files
OR does importing all .DBX files (including FOLDERS.DBX) at ONCE
automatically create those folders (i.e. I have a folder called 'Real
Estate' under the 'Indox'--a subfolder of 'Inbox---and as another example
I
have another folder called "Gmail' at same branch level as 'Inbox').



Using OE's File | Import will create the folders if the proper Folders.dbx
is with the other DBX files (and none of them are Read Only).
