I have O.E. 6 and I wish to copy all my mail folders and address book to a
new computer.
Existing and new comp are both Windows XP.
My mail has been saved in various sub-folders within the "local folders",
and I would like to try and retain these folders.
Can anyone please advise me?

Hi Peter,

See the replies by DGuess and Bruce Hagen to the post by KCav made not long
before yours, "How to keep address book and email entries."

There is also a good Microsoft KB article on the topic.
