Exporting OE (to the file system?)

[Jack B. Pollack]

I have two Outlook Express questions that I think require the same answer:

1. I have many users using OE (I know the Outlook would be a better choice,
but many users dont require the other components of MS Office on their
systems). They are saving all of there old email in OE, and the dbx files
are getting very large. I would like to be able to archive the old emails
(in the file system).

Is there a program that will mass export the emails & attachments to the
file system?

2. I have a user using OE, and she will be switching to a Mac. Will OE Mac
or Entourage read the PC DBX files? If no, what is the best way to export
her old emails for future reference on the Mac?

TIA

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!
