Default import *.iaf mail-accounts from Windows Vista Mail to Outlook Express 6 ?

Hi,

how can i import my exported *.iaf mail-account files from Windows
Vista RC2 Mail (Windows Mail) to Outlook Express 6. When i try to
import it, an error message says something like "unrecognized format"
?!

Is there any converting program, eg. vistaIAF2outlook6IAF ?

No, you probably can't do that. You'll have to set the accounts up again
manually. I don't think MS intends it to go backwards like that.

You can reincorporate the messages from Vista back to OE by dragging the eml
files from Explorer into an OE folder. The messages in Vista are stored as
individual eml files under directories that match the folder names, so they
are easy to find and save and also put back into OE.
