Thanks a bunch. That was very helpful.
I got the folders copies to the C drive on my computer, but when I imported
them to Outlook, they formed a redundant set of folders--i.e., I had two
incoming folders, two outgoing folders, etc. When I tried to drag one folder
to the other, the result was a subfolder with the same name as the folder.
Any ideas how to solve this one?
