Default Need to move OE6 messages to Windows Email (Vista)

I want to export messages from OE6 (XP) to a new computer with Windows email
(Vista).

I followed some instructions which were to (in OE6) go to
Tools/Options/Maintenance/Store Folder. Then I copied the identity path in
there to a new folder I was to create on my desktop called "Email". Then I
was to click the change button and select my new email folder/ press
okay and all files were exported to my new folder. All of this was
copied onto a Flash drive. When I insert it into my new computer I can see
the file names but when I try to Import it, none of the files are seen at
that time.

See my reply in OE General.

If you want to send identical messages to more than one newsgroup, please
crosspost one message to all the groups. This way if a post is replied to in
one group, it will also be replied to in the other group(s) as well. Thank
you.
