transferring messages

Hi

Have been using WLM (as was desktop) on a Win XP machine, with 3 email
accounts, but have now bought a new computer and installed WLM to it.

How do I get the stored emails across to my new computer?

Thanks

Sorry, should have said, the new computer has Vista 64 bit installed.

To add..
Save the files on an accessible jump drive, network, external drive(preferably write instead of CD read only) that is also
accessible to the second computer.
WLM's File export requires a blank folder(created in advance or during the export process).

Export Messages(on the old machine)
3. On the File menu, point to Export, and then click Messages.
====
1. Start Windows Live Mail(on the new machine)
2. Click the File menu, and then point to Import.
