OutLook Express 6.0

[Arley Pentico]

I am trying to copy my e-mail "rules for Message", in
Outlook express 6.0 (<Tools><Message Rules><mail>), to
another account on the same machine under a differ account
name.
Question:
Can it be done?
How do I copy the "rules" and export and import into
another account?

They are in the Registry. Export this key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities\{GUID}\Software\Microsoft\Outlook
Express\5.0\Rules

Before merging it into a new Identity or new machine, edit the REG file with
WordPad and change the GUID to agree with where you want to Merge it.
