Import messages from OE6

I have an old copy of the OE6 folder (Outlook Express) in my external HD, I
want to import all the messages to my Windows Mail, but when I follow all the
Importation steps, windows mail told me there is no messages in my folder,
Why?

What can I do to get all my old messages into my windows mail?

You may have the application directory, but not the .dbx files.

The files you need are stored (in XP) under
C:\Documents and Settings\(your account)\Local Settings\Application
Settings\Identities\.....\Microsoft\Outlook Express
