How do I import OE6 messages to Windows Mail on Windows Vista?
I just bought a new laptop with Windows Vista on it and am trying to bring
over all my old E-mails from another PC running XP. I had no trouble importing the address book, but I copied over the directory with all the different OE6 e-mail folders onto the new laptop and when I run the import routine in Windows Mail it says there are no relevant folders in this directory. I can see all the dbx files sitting there when I look in it with Explorer. What's the trick that I'm missing? Steve Gardner

Steve Gardner Make sure you put them in a folder in your User Profile and that they are not Read Only. See the section on importing OE messages into Windows Mail he http://www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx -- Frank Saunders, MS-MVP OE/WM http://www.fjsmjs.com Answer in newsgroup. Don't expect an answer to email.
