Getting Old Emails to Show up in Outlook
 

I just migrated my emails to Outlook (from Outlook Express), but none of my
old emails that had been organized by various folders are showing up in the
new Outlook. Anyone know how I can get Outlook to show all of my old emails
so I don't have to go between Outlook and Outlook Express to reference old
emails?

Thanks!

As I understand it in Express you have to put all your mail from the folders
in the root folder, before you then export msgs to Outlook
What you do in Outlook after this depends on your version of Outlook

The way one should migrate data from OE to OL is to EXPORT from OE to
OL. Do it with OL closed. When you open OL, you will see all your OE
folders and messages.

For some reason, it is also not synching up with my Inbox. Any other thoughts?

If you export them from Outlook Express, the folder structure will be
maintained. Only one identity at a time can be exported, though.

For the address book/contacts, import using OL. You want the .wab file.
