Hi -
I just formatted and reinstalled XP Home, and would like to transfer my
"Sent Items" .dbx files which I backed up to an external Hard Drive. Can
this be done, and if so, how?
TIA
Joe Arnold
 
Hi Joe,

Either export/import the key, use File/Import in OE or the DBX extrator.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Account Manager
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Outlook Express

DBX Mail Extractor (MVP Steve Cochran)

One note for this. Before you copy the folders to the new mail store
location, close OE, and then delete the Folders.dbx file first. Then copy
the files back, and re-open OE.
 
Oulook should have an import messages function under file
Try importing them. Work for me in outlook express light.
