Where has all my email gone?
 

I recently upgraded from Win98SE to WinXp then upgraded IE6 to IE7 which must
have done something to my OE6 mail client. I still have OE6 with all my
identities, but there is no contact list or address book, no email, no email
rules, no directory structure from the old Identities, it has all disappeared
and there were reference emails from many years ago that I can't replace. I
trust they are still on the hard drive but how do I get them back?

Where has all my email gone?

Thank you, Bruce,
The instructions are helpful and it took hours and hours to figure out which
CLSID belonged to which Identity, but I think I finally did it. Some
Identities had 3 different CLSIDs to work with. However, I found the
solution possible and certainly it gave me a place to start when I had none
before you helped me. Thanks, again.
