transfer saved emails from an old to a new computer

[Guest]

I have recently acquired a new computer operating Windows XP and Outlook
Express. My old system on my old computer was Windows ME.
I use email extensively for a number of purposes and regularly save copies
of emails to specifically designated folders within Outlook Express. I wish
to transfer these folders (and their contents) to my new computer. I have
tried transfers within the scope of my knowledge pertaining thereto but
without success.
Is there a simple solution to this issue ?

Backup and Restore OE
http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com/backup/index.htm

BTW, this newsgroup is for support of Outlook
97/98/2000/2002/2003 from the Office suite of products. Outlook
Express is actually a separate program despite the similar name.

For help with your OE questions, try an OE newsgroup such as
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress (for OE 6), or
an OE help website such as http://insideOE.tomsterdam.com. If you're
accessing the Microsoft newsgroups through the MS Product Support
Services "Community Newsgroups" web interface, click
http://communities.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.asp?icp=InternetExplorer
to get to the Internet Explorer groups, then click the plus sign next to
your version of IE to see the link to the Outlook Express group for that
version number. Good luck!
