Migrating to Win2K from Win98 - Outlook.e Express Problems

[Mike]

I have multiple ID's and subordinate mail folders set up
in Outlook Express under Win98. I bought a new hard disk
and installed W2K and tried to migrate the folders, mail,
address book, etc., from the existing hd to the new one.
I get most of the mail messages, and non of the folders,
or separated contacts. How can I get all of the
information over intact? By the way, I am FAT32 on Win98
and NTFS on W2K. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks.

I suspect that what Mike was asking about didn't have as much to do with
Outlook Express as it did with the possibility of having a NTFS drive as well
as separate FAT32 (Win98-formatted) drive in the system under Windows 2000.

Is there a problem with this, then? I'm about to migrate two machines myself,
and would like to prevent as much data loss as possible.
