    I'm more or less forced to move from OE6 mail to office outlook 97 mail at work and have been using express for a long time.

    I've checked every option i can find and don't see a feature to import anything but data base stuff:
    I need help copying or importing this and all stuff i guess;

    (1) add my oe address book
    (2) all pop accounts
    (3) all folders and messages

    Is there any hope for me???:(

    When I needed to transfer something from Outlook to Outlook Express I first exported it to Exchange and then from Exchange to Outlook Express. It may work in reverse also. Outlook Express to Exchange to Outlook. I'd try it but I don't have Outlook or Exchange on the new system. It's worth a try...
