| | Cannot import Outlook express email file (.DBX) I have an Outlook express file (.dbx) that I cannot import to Microsoft Mail. I try to use the import method but I keep getting the following error message: "No messages can be found in this folder or another application is running that has the required file open. Please select another folder or try closing applications that may have files open." The file is in the folder but the import wizard does not recognize it. HELP! |
