I have MS Outlook 2003 on my computer, and I would like to set it up and
import the messages from my Outlook Express. I have been getting "Message
could not be displayed" errors when using the "Find" feature in OE, and I was
wondering if Outlook had the same problems with folder/file sizes.

Thanks in advance,

Sheana

You need to File/Export your messages from OE to Outlook. Use
File/Import in Outlook to import the OE address book. Outlook 03 has a
28 gigabyte limit and doesn't use folder or .dbx files like Outhouse
Distress does. Everything will be in a .PST file.

You set up Outlook pretty much the same as OE, you have to add your mail
accounts. Once Outlook is configured, in OE Export msgs to Outlook.
Stop useing OE, or set it not to send/receive mail, or remove the mail
accounts, otherwise if you open it it will receive mail.
