Can't import, OE6, one PC to another

[Phil]

I thought moving my Outlokk Express 6 e-mails from one PC to another PC
would be easy, but I was very mistaken. I just copied the folder Identities
from the old PC to a CD, then copied that Identities folder to my new PC
hard drive, in a non e-mail folder. For this folder, I went to File and set
attributes to make sure all the files were not "Read-Only". Then I tried
importing into Outlook Express 6. No go. Says it can not find any
messages, despite naming the proper directory.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you,

- Phil
