In order to display Chinese message properly with a non-Chinese email
client, the message must be properly encoded (e.g. GB2312 or GB18030 for
Simplified Chinese). This *must* be done by the sender!
If the message is in HTML or Rich Text Format, then the Chinese
characters must be using a proper Chinese font.
Finally, any header lines (From, Subject) containing Chinese characters
will only display properly if Outlook is running in Unicode Mode.

For transferring your mail from Outlook Express to Outlook, I hope
someone else here can supply the method. Please note that messages that
have already lost its multibyte character integrity will not gain it
back after transferring them to Outlook. Broken multibyte (Chinese)
characters cannot be unbroken by any conventional methods.
