Need to access POP3 email from a different user

[neilntruong]

Can anyone tell how to retrieve POP emails of another user on the same computer? They used Outlook Express 6 on windows 2000 OS. Can any tell what extension outlook express 6 uses when storing pop emails. Any insight or suggestions would be appreciated.

You can just set up another POP account on that PC. OE will allow multiple POP accounts.

How can i switch identity? I cannot log into the old account...it's gone for some reason. But I am pretty sure the files are still there. If I set up pop three with a different windows login would it retreive the old pop emails from old login?

Try importing (*.dbx files) from C:\Documents and Settings\'user name'\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{'long string'}\Microsoft\Outlook Express
