Search the old hard drive for *.dbx (with Win2K, WinXP and Win2K3 you will
have to set the search to include hidden files and folders). Use File |
Import | Messages.
Select Outlook Express 5 (or 6, they are the same for this purpose).
Select the lower radio button to import from an Outlook Express store
directory and navigate to the location that OE is not using.
