I am now dual booted Vista and XP. I want to move my email and Newsgroup to
Vista. I now use Outlook Express in XP.

Vista uses Window mail, the successor to Outlook Express.
 
Hi,

From XP's Outlook Express, use file/export/messages, save to a location you
can access from the Vista installation. In Vista's Windows Mail, use
file/import/messages and point to the files in the previously saved
location.

Just be advised that windows mail in vista wont do http mail. So if you use
hotmail for instance, you will have to check it via an internet browser.

Thanks
Is this the reason that I cannot get mail from my website?

Thanks for the other shoe. I was aware of this feature but didn't know to do
it. I like the Microsoft community feature where all of the MS news group
are. I now have all of my news groups in Vista.
