Outlook express

[Jody]

I need to know if I can copy all the emails and send them
to another computer. I am upgrading from ME with a full
install and need to save everything in my outlook express
(e-mails, folders, contacts) can this be done?

Copy the .dbx files to the new computer and put them somewhere handy. then
use the Maintenance tab in OE to use the copied files.

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group
try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the source

references are for use with MS's web newsreader (not exactly the best way to
post but it works for some people)
