I just installed Vista and Windows Mail. I want to import the data from my
earlier Outlook Express mail program (OE store folder). When doing so, I get
an aditional Local Folder named "Imported folders" with all the imported
(local) folders again, instead of having e.g. the imported inbox, sent item,
deleted items... data in the already existing Windows Mail Inbox folders.
Thanks for any advise.

That's the way it works.
You can drag mail from the imported folders into your regular folders and
then delete them.
