Can anyone point me to the default location of my outlook express mail file? I just got a new PC and I need to import my old emails...

Thanks!

By default, the Outlook Express mail and news folders are located in the following folders for the following Windows versions: • Windows 95 or Windows 98
Windows\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook Express
where Windows is the folder in which Windows 95 or Windows 98 is installed.
• Windows NT, and Windows 95 or Windows 98 with user profiles enabled
Windows\Profiles\Username\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook Express
where Windows is the folder in which Windows is installed, and Username is the name you use to log on to Windows.

Thanks!

Download the free trial of Outlook Express Backup Wizard and use that. I used that when I migrated my OE stuff to my new rig and it saved me a lot of hassle. Very easy.

The free trial is for 30 days I think.
