I want to transfer all of my Outlook Express e-mails / e-mail folders from an
old compluter (win 2000) to a new computer (win XP). How do I do this?

Let me explain a little further. Prior to copying the files, I decided to
relocate the files to a new folder on the desktop for easy coying. After
going into tools, options,maintenance, store folder, I found where the files
were currently being stored. I closed OE, went to that folder, highlighted
and cut the folders, and pasted them into the new folder I created on my
desktop. I then re-opened OE, and specified in the 'store folder' tab the
new e-mail folder location on my desktop. I can't get the e-mails to
display, and now, the file size of the e-mail folders in the new is very
small. Did I loose my e-mails somewhere?? What do I do now?

This newsgroup is for support of Outlook 97, 98, 2000, 2002 & 2003 from the
Office
family for Intel PCs. For Outlook Express (OE) support try posting in one of
these newsgroups:
microsoft.public.inetexplorer.ie4.outlookexpress for OE 4.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress for OE 5.5x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE 6.x
microsoft.public.internet.mail.mac for the Macintosh version of OE

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group
try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the source
for all the microsoft.public newsgroups).
