I have a new PC with XP Pro on it and have networked it to my old Me based PC
with a crossover cable. I want to move all of my old emails (inbox and sent
in particular) to my new inbox.

Currently both PCs have Outlook Express.

Any ideas!?

Thanks to all who offered advice. I used the FAST wizard to transfer the
Outlook Express files once I had saved them to a handy location to pick up.
