I have Win XP Pro and use OE 6. After using it a while, I purchased Outlook;
however, when I tried to export my address book and the messages from OE 6, I
was allowed to export the address book, but not the messages. I received
this error message:

The export could not be performed.
An error occurred while initializing MAPI.

Is there a solution?

Outlook needs to be set as the default MAPI application on your PC.
