Outlook Express query

[Bear]

Can anyone tell me where Outlook Express version 6 under WIN2K keeps copies of mail sent and received please?. I've just rebuilt my computer and copied IE favourites and OE accounts without difficulty but my correspondence eludes me.

make sure you have hidden files and folders shown
tools>folder options>view check or uncheck appropriate boxes in hidden files
now do a search for .dbx files
copy them to a folder.
now in outlook express go file>import>messages>oe6> check the store directory option, now browse to the folder you put the dbx files in.........

should do ti
