OT Where are my e mails

[Uncle C]

After years of limping along with an old computer, I have finally bought a new one.

My question concerns the several hundred old, saved, e mails in Outlook Express.
Firstly, where are they - stored on my old hard drive in a file, or with some 3rd party (Tiscali).
Secondly are there any neat tricks to import them onto my new computer

Thanks

They'll be a file somewhere on your machine that you can copy across and re-import on the new computer. Did a quick google search and the following came up...

On the old machine, the easiest way to locate Outlook Express' email store is to ask Outlook Express. Fire it up, and then in Tools, Options, on the Maintenance tab there's a button labeled Store Folder. Click that and it will tell you the folder containing your email folder.

Copy this file to a location on your new computer and you should be able to import it.
