Search for a .dbx file on your old hard drive, copy the e-mail database file to your new computer, then from within Windows Mail go File->Import->Messages->Microsoft Outlook Express 6->Import mail from an OE6 store directory and then browse for the database file. It should import all of the e-mails within moments.
Hope this helps,
John
My laptop with XP was knocked off of a table, and would no longer boot up. I decided to use the opportunity to upgrade toa modern laptop which of course runs Vista. I took my old laptop drive out and installed into an external drive enlosure. I have been able o get photos, music and other data from the old drive to the new laptop. How do I go about getting saved email messages from Outlok Express migrated over to the new laptop? So far I am using the Microsoft Mail application included in Vista. All help is appreciated.
