I have followed all the links in the newsgroup for transferring messages,
address book and accounts from XP Outlook Express to Vista Windows Mail.
This is one of the links I followed:
http://www.vista4beginners.com/Migrate-from-Outlook-Express-to-Windows-Mail
I have a problem after the transfer when I open a mail in Windows Mail. It
is a mail with pics with a gif extension. In fact it is the one mail you
have from Microsoft when you first open Outlook Express.
In Outlook Express it shows fine. In Vista it has Red X's where the pic
should be. If I have a mail with pics with a jpg extension, it will open and
show pics just fine with no problem.
In OE I have in Options under the Security Tab to allow attachments and not
to block html content. I have in Vista Windows Mail the same options
unchecked.
I trying to get this right testing on my test computers as I have a friend
who has tons of mail that must be saved and pics in the mail. Don't know if
they will all be jpg extensions or not. I trying to get this right so she
don't loose anything.
Can anyone tell me what is going on and what I may have missed? It seems
that Vista Mail is the problem as no problem in XP Outlook Express.
Thank You,
Ed.
