moving Identity to a newer computer
I am moving everything to a newer computer, and I'm not sure how to go about
it with Outlook Express and all my email and email folders. I tried copying the old Identity to the new computer, putting it in Docs & Settings right next to the new Identity. But so far it isn't showing up in Outlook Express when I try to Manage and Switch Identities. Is there a correct way to do this? I have the two computers hooked up via a LAN so it is easy to copy files back and forth. jc

You select which folders to import.
Folders of the same name, Inbox, Sent items, Drafts, Deleted items, and user created folders will put the messages in folders of the same name. Imported folders that have unique names will be added as unique named folders. For folders to import, folders.dbx must be included. -- Ron Sommer MVP-Mail "jbclem" wrote in message ...
