Greetings,

I've imported Outlook Express mail files from a computer
running Windows 98 to a computer running Windows XP. All
but about six files of mail (i.e. Inbox) transferred
cleanly. I've tried to import the remaining six but no
luck -- although, they are present in the local settings
folder:

C:\Documents and Settings\NAME NAME\Local
Settings\Application Data\Identities\{24A2A812-D580-4508-
AF7F-FEC35AB0DF9E}\Microsoft\Outlook Express

I've tried to import those files from another location --
a desktop folder -- and the import function on outlook
says it recognizes no mail files within that folder.

Any way to overcome this?

Thanks.
