Lost Personal Folders in Outlook Express

[Kevin G]

When I upgraded from windows 98 to 2000, I my outlook express was also
upgraded. In the process, I lost all of my personal folders that I had
created. The address book came across ok. Can anybody tell me how to
get/import/retrieve my personal folders?

Thanks, Kevin G.

Hi - they're probably still there. I suggest you post in an Outlook Express
group for more help, tho - it isn't a Windows issue....

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

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).

If you're accessing the Microsoft newsgroups through the MS Product Support
Services Community Newsgroups web interface, click
http://communities.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.asp?icp=InternetExplorer
to get to the Internet Explorer groups, then click the plus sign next to
your version of IE to see the link to the Outlook Express group for that
version number.

A good website for information on OE is:
