Re: Import messages and accounts from OE6 in Windows Mail
Thanks for your reaction Ron
I managed my messages importing about an hour ago. Very glad with it was
searching for days now.

Very helpfull link was this one:
http://www.microsoft.com/communities...2fsettings.xml

Found it here in the newsgroup somewhere. Can't find it anymore. (I'm pretty
new to newsgroup stuff)
What I can't manage is importing the email accounts from OE to WM.
But I suppose there is no answer to that. And I have to do that manually.
Sad but true I think

Btw. Answering your question yes I had the OE dbx files including
folders.dbx in a folder on the hard drive and not RO. But Windows mail
didn't recognize anything.
