Hi there,

I've managed to import messages from a cd rom to one of my new windows mail
user accounts but I'm having problems with the other two. The first problem
I'm having is that when I'm trying to change the attributes of the files (in
properties) to get rid of the read only access, I'm getting the error -
"access denied". If I click select all & follow the instructions given by
someone else on this forum about how to import from OE to windows mail (which
I have to say has been really helpful so far!), I can only import things like
sent items, inbox etc but all the folders are empty. Is there a solution to
this problem?

The problem I'm having with the other user account is that I forgot to copy
the folders.dbx file over from my old pc and I understand this is vital for
the files to be imported - can I do anything about this other than setting up
my old pc to start the transfer process all over again??

I hope someone understands what I'm trying to say here! I'm actually going
out to a line dancing party just now but I thought I'd post my question now
on the hope that someone my have been able to answer by the time I get back!
I was up until 2am this morning trying to figures this out!

Thanks in advance.

Vicki
