1) Create a folder in Explorer and name it C:\Old Mail

2) Copy ALL the dbx fles from OE6 to the C:\Old Mail folder on the Vista
machine. Be sure to include the Folders.dbx file, it is
required...................

3) File | Import | Messsages
4) Select MIcrosoft Outlook Express 6
5) Press NEXT
6) IMport mail from an OE6 store directory should be selected.
7) Press OK
8) Press BROWSE

Now, when you press the Browse button, Explorer will open.
There are three window panes. The two on the left are the ones we are
interested in and then only the one named FOLDERS is one we want to look
thrru, it's the one with the scrollbar.

At the top next to the forward and back buttons (two round buttons with
arrows) you should see an icon then your username and next to each of those
is a smal triangle.

On the triangle to the right of the icon, click on it and select Computer
Now, you should see the hard drive and the CD drives. double click on the C
drive icon. Probably named Local Disk (C:)

****
Now, in the right windows pane, you should see the Old Mail folder you
created and put the dbx files.
Double click on it to open it.

Ok, in the left windows pane, there should be some light highlighting for
the Old Mail folder to show it as selected.

At the bottom there is a line named Folder and probably shows Old Mail
listed there.

Delete the text Old Mail from the Folder line and then press the Select
Folder button on the botton right. Yes it should be empty.

When you select the Select Folder button, you are taken back to the browse
location and it should read C:\Old Mail

If it reads C:\Old Mail\Old Mail, go back and repeat the steps on the folder
select (just below the **** above.

If it does read C:\Old Mail then you are ready to finish the import.
Press NEXT and finish the import.
