My old computer died after 6 years and the hard drive is loaded with emails
in the OE "inbox" and "sent items", which I very much need to recover and
move to my new comnputer. My address book is also on the old hard drive,
which I also need to recover.

It is critical that I recover these emails and my address book so I
purchased a USB Hard Drive Enclosure Kit However, I am having trouble
finding my address book and the emails I want to transfer to my new computer.

Accessing the old hard drive is not a problem, but finding what I want is a
problem. Can someone please explain (step-by-step) how I can find and import
the saved emails and address book into the OE on my new computer?

Please, please, please help!!

Thanks a million,

Backup and Resto

Hi Michelle,

Sadly few people know and propagate the best software to do this
recovery task on Outlook Express mails:

http://www.mailnavigator.com/

Download it, and open your .dbx (OE files) from there.
