Transfer of OE to another computer

Asked By John
12-Mar-10 01:52 PM
I have a 5 years old computer with XP PRO and I use outlook express.
I bought a new computer, also XP PRO but faster main processor.

Both machines are in the same room and I networked them, and I can see on
one machine all that I set to share with the other. But I cannot neither
export nor Import anything from one machine OE to the other. It just will not
do it.

Anyone knows how to go about it, Please,
John

OE was not built with networking in mind.

OE was not built with networking in mind. You're going to have to do a
little manual work.
