Vista - Importing Accounts

Importing Accounts

I've recently found it necessary to do a complete scratch reinstallation of
Vista on my computer. I've been using WLM for a few weeks. Just prior to
starting the reinstallation, I found I can export all my account settings.
Since I have 6 accounts for various reasons (some POP accounts) I found this
to be a nice feature. However, once the reinstallation of Vista and
subsequently, WLM, I find there is no **obvious** provision for importing
the accounte that WLM let me export. Am I missing something, or must I
reinstall all accounts manually?

Re: Importing Accounts

Doh! Now, I'm really embarrassed. That's the obvious place to look, but I
was looking under file-->import .

Thanks, much appreciated.
