mail problems with outlook express
Posted by max on November 3rd, 2003


I would like to know how to get all my mail messages that
I saved on my other hard disk. I saved all the .dbx files
from the outlook dir to a cd but they still do not work.
Is there some way to make it work?


Thanks
Max

You can't use the folders whilst they are on the CD.
Copy the dbx folders to your new hard disk, remove the "read only"
attribute and use file>import to get them back into the current OE.
