Default Restore only gets 1/2 of the msgs

HELP! OE 6 would not open at all - I finally got that fixed - and of course
no messages or folders - I had already backed all of that up (and they
actually were still in the ID folder) but when I import the folders thru
File/Import - it only imports 1/2 of the folders - it goes all the way to
the folder BEFORE Inbox and then stops - it doesn't import anything after
the file before Inbox. I've tried deleting inbox and reimporting (using OE
Quick Backup) but no luck - can anyone help me out here?

thanks!
Pam

Try manually importing the dbx files using the method in the last paragraph
relative to OE on this page: www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx Also see
www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#4

yep, that was it - tedious but worked.... is there any type of spamfighter
that works well with OE - I tried the spamfighter and that's what screwed it
up in the first place - thanks for the help

No. Most antispam programs screw things up with OE as do antivirus programs
set to scan email. See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3
