Resolved How to import emails & folders from OE6 to Outlook W7?

Hello All,

I've managed to import my contact list from OE6 to the new PC (W7 running Outlook) but I have been totally unsuccessful in being able to import all of my emails and folders from OE6 on the old PC.

There are instructions on the web that say I should "import to OE on the new PC (or import to Windows Mail) but I can't find any utility that recognizes OE's multi-file folder system (.dbx) - and my new PC doesn't have OE. It has WM.

Any help would be appreciated.

Yes. My new PC doesn't have OE at all so I can't follow those instructions. See instruction 7 in section where OE and OL are on different systems.

Thoughts?

Fixed

Got it done by following this: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/convert_oe.htm

Short version: downloaded Windows Live Mail to new PC. Imported old OE6 folders (.dxb) into Live Mail. Next, using WLM, export messages into OL7.

Done.

Thanks for all the suggestions.
