My Windows WISHLIST

[Stuart Van]

I am not sure if this is available in XP or not. I am upgrading to Xp really
soon, but in the meantime I am hating this about w98! I wish that there was
a way to import / export your "Blocked Senders" list, and "Message Rules" I
just formatted my hard drive,.. checked my mail. and gpt 143 SPAM messages!
Maybe this will be available someday soon?.. it would be nice

Hi Stuart,

Export them from here: Start/Run/Regedit

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities\{GUID}\Software\Microsoft\Outlook
Express\5.0\Block Senders

If you don't mind having Signatures, Rules and all the other settings the
same, this method works.

From the user account that is already set up:

Click Start, Run and enter REGEDIT

Locate the following 4 branches of the Registry

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Account Manager
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Outlook Express
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\WAB\WAB4\Wab File Name

Right click on each branch above and select Export and save the REG files to
your hard drive.

For each account you want to have the same mail settings, log into that
account. Click Start, Run and enter REGEDIT. Locate the
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities branch, right click it and select Delete.
Next open Windows Explorer and locate the 4 REG files you saved above.
Double click each one and answer yes to the import prompt.
