| | How to import mails from another computer? I'm installing a brandnew Vista Home machine and like to import all e-mails from the old Vista Home computer (both on Windows Mail). The old computer has gone south, but there is an image (on an external hard-drive) of drive C: and on mounting that image, I'm having access to all files. Don't know where to search and how to proceed that "import" of all e-mails and all addresses (no newsgroups). Peter |
