Help with getting my email from Outlook Express

[Debbie]

We bought this computer but it doesn't have the Outlook Express on it, I am
wanting to get all of my emails from the old computer. Can someone tell if I
can have Windows mail retrieve my emails from the old computer?
Thanks

Copy the entire msg store from the old PC to eg Documents in Vista, then in
WM Import
You may aslo need the address book from the old PC, the *.wab file

I have the same problem and have done what DL suggests, but I get a message
which reads, "No items match your search" inspite of the fact that the email
folders are stored in the folder in Documents. Can anyone help?
