    I would like to copy OE 6 mail folders into the windows mail local folder to keep the same file system on my new computer as my old. Anyone know a way to do it?

    In Win Mail click on File -> Import and point the import towards the OE dbx files. They will end up in a folder called Imported Mail.

    That was a good clue. I copied the OE6 .dbx files to a shared file and transferred the whole thing to the new computer and then did what you suggested - got them all transferred with a minimum of fuss. Thank you.
