Hi

I have an Outlook Express account on a Windows 98SE PC running OE version 5.5. I would like a second PC (Windows 98SE running OE version 6) to have a copy of the emails in a partcular folder on the Windows 98SE PC. The folder is for a work colleague who now has his own Internet Account on his PC and so would like all his emails moved from my PC to his PC.

How can I do this?

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Open explorer and browse to the following link...

C:\Windows\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\(yoursid)\Microsoft\Outlook Express

You should find dbx files, copy all the files in this folder to the other pc. Open outlook express and run thru the import. Be sure to create a new folder to import to...
