Email backup need help
« on: January 05, 2007, 01:52 PM »
Hello,

I just got a new PC... ( was the time for it ). I need to move all my Outlook Express mail from the old pc to this new one.. Anyone can help? ( I know how to move folders, but I don't know how to copy signatures, rules, settings, and contacts )

There are several third-party software programs that will do this, but they will cost you money and you will probably only use them once. However, Microsoft has a way to transfer a bunch of stuff, to include Outlook Express stuff, to a new computer.

Hello,

Thank you for the reply. Reffering to the 3rd party software, I did some searches on the net and found a program that does what I want:
Outlook Express Backup Genie
