Question

Can anybody tell me how to transfer my Outlook Express 5 address book and all of my email folders onto a new computer. Also, I'd like to transfer my favorites for IE 5.5 over also. The old computer has Windows 98, the new one has Windows 98 SE. I will have the same version of Internet Explorer and Outlook Express on both computers. They are networked together, so transferring files should be easy. But exactly what must be transferred over and is it a simple copy and paste procedure? Any help would be appreciated.

Paul

Panic Over ( POP , Freeware ) saves to a storage device , your email,
address book, favorites and docs so you can restore them after a
reload of Windows 98. You must have a D or E drive to run this program.

Both IE and OE have Import/Export functions listed on the File menu. Export on the old, import on the new.
