I have Windows 98 and just downloaded outlook express
6.0. I retained all of my info (address book, etc.) but
lost all of my emails from my old inbox, sent items,
deleted items folders. How can I retrieve those emails???
 
Tools>Options>Maintenance>Store folder will reveal the location of your
current Identity's store. Write it down.

In Explorer, search for .DBX files. Any found which are not located in your
current store will most likely be those from your OE5 Identity. You can
Import them using File>Import>Messages....
