May 02 OE migration to WLM - some messages not successfully migratedHey - My name is Nauman Qureshi and I'm the Tech Lead working on Windows Live Mail with my colleague Scott Hammer (who some of you might already know). I've been receiving a lot of complaints from customers who have run into issues in migrating their accounts successfully from OE to WLM. While there are technical reasons for this issue, I will skip those (unless someone is interested in learning what they are). I'm going to jump directly into how you can resolve this problem: Please follow the below steps: 1) Open Windows Live Mail (close Outlook Express if its currently running) 2) Click on "File" (If you do not see the Menu on the top part of the program, this means it's hidden. In order to see the menu, hit ALT+M and select 'Show all menus') 3) Then click on "Import" and select "Messages" 4) From the new window that popped up, select the program you want to import from 5) If you are importing from Outlook Express 6, and haven't changed the default store location of the folders, click "Next" (if you did change the location of the store folder, please choose the location by clicking the "Browse" button) 6) Click "Next" (keep the default selection of "All folders") 7) Once all the data has been imported, click "Finish" You can view this migrated folder under "Storage Folders" > "Imported Folders" in Windows Live Mail. Let me know if you have any questions - Thanks a lot! Nauman Q Comments (19)
