Outlook Express Inbox, Sent restore

I messed up my pc last night and spent a couple of hours doing a fresh reinstall of my OS. I did copied my address book.wab, inbox.dbx, sent.dbx onto a CD-ROM before that.

I manage to get the address book back (after unchecking the "read only" attribute) into OE6.

But I'm totally lost how to get the inbox.dbx and sent.dbx back into OE6. Should I just copy and paste back these 2 files ?
Must I also uncheck their "read only" attributes ?

Please help as the mails are important to me.
