Coversion from Outlook Express to Outlook

J

I can not seem to import my OE mail folders into Outlook on my new PC.

My new PC is Vista and my old PC is XP.

Before I disconnected my old PC, I copied the e-mail folders and addresses
onto my external hard drive. I thought that I could just import them from
there. I was somehow able to get the adresses in, but not the e-mail
folders.

I select: import - import internet mail and addresses - Outlook Express
X.X - select import mail. The only thing it does is import the one e-mail I
have in my inbox over and over again.

So how do I tell it to import .dbx files from a different folder into the
new .pst folder environment?

Thanks, John

You must first configure Windows Mail to use your old OE data. You can then
export to Outlook from Windows Mail.
