Import mail from Express to Outlook 2003

[A West]

Hi.
Hoping someone has an answer.
I just imported my mail from Outlook Express (Version 6) to Outlook
2003 (both on the same computer). It seemed to work fine...except...a
number of the mail messages imported with the wrong date. When viewing
my inbox...a bunch of e-mails now have the date and time of when I did
the import...not when the e-mail was received. When I open these
e-mails...the correct date and time is displayed...but not when viewing
my inbox.
Only happened for about 1/4 of the 250 or so messages I imported. Anyone
have an idea why? Is this a bug? Anyone know how to fix the problem?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Better is to use Export form within OE. Importing from within Outlook will
indeed reset the dates.
