| 2636 | 1999-08-09 09:25:00 | I had to reformat computer so I saved my outlook express messages from: C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Identities\{AFC*****-****-****-****-************}\Microsoft\Outlook Express as .dbx files. According to help these are compressed mail messages. Now I can't reinstall these files. Anyone out there know how I can reinstall these or at least read them. I have tried Click File|Import|Messages, and select Microsoft Outlook Express 5. You can then browse to the folder where you put the *.dbx files. this said that there were no mail file in the folder.HELP PLEASE. Gary |
