How to transfer Outlook EXPRESS email from old XP PC to Vista

Hi there,

We bought a new PC but need to transfer our email from Outlook Express
to the new Vista PC.

How can we do this?

Thanks

Re: How to transfer Outlook EXPRESS email from old XP PC to Vista

Hi There,
I have the same issue. I don't want to use Windows Mail, I want to use Outlook on my Vista machine. To be more specific: How do you transfer Outlook Express emails (from an XP Box) to Outlook on Vista (note: note Windows Mail but Outlook)?

Thank You,
Rick

Since this newsgroup is dedicated to Windows Mail issues, you are
asking in the wrong place. Try one of the Outlook newsgroups:
microsoft.public.outlook.general

Did you ever get an answer? I am having the same exact problem. I saved my
emails to the desktop on the new computer, however, I don't know how to load
them or my address book into Outlook. Please help. Nicolle

You told him to go somewhere else - can't find where to go to get the answer.
