importing from outlook express-not responding

[Guest]

Hi,

I just imported by address book from outlook express into windows mail as a
wab file (windows address book). Windows Mail now keeps freezing and saying
'not responding' almost every time I try to create new mail. Could it be that
the file had a problem? I imported it from another computer. Or that the
address book was too big (nearly 4000 contacts)?

I really need the contacts - especially the ones in groups!!!

There's the problem.

If you can access it via an old or another ocmputer, export it as a .csv
file (Comma Separated Values text file which is listed as other address book
in export in Address Book) then use that .csv file to import into WinMail
