WM problems on import from OE on XP

On new VISTA PC with WM, have imported data from OE on old XP PC.
Used steps recommended by Steve, thank you.
The OE data was large: 336 folders, 6GB. Works fine in OE on XP PC.

WM shows an "Imported Folder" under "Local Folders" with following problems:
1. Cannot see contents of folders (see error msg below)
2. In my XP OE, I had numerous folders organised in a structured tree (eg
top-level folder, with sub-folders, with sub-folders etc). However, the
import only managed to transfer the first (in alphabetical order) top-level
folder with all its sub-folders; subsequent top-level folders only have the
first sub-folder showing, the rest are missing. Due to problem #1, I cannot
see any data anyway.


Folder could not be displayed
Windows Mail could not open this folder.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Possible causes are:
Low disk space.
Low memory.

HDD has 83GB free, and RAM=2GB.

Any ideas why WM is misbehaving?

Starting another thread on the same problem seldom gets you
help any faster, and it slows down help for other people.
See my answer in your previous thread.
