Question: I have been trying to find a way to transfer my existing OE email from this old P2$233Mhz to a nice fresh AthlonXP 2400+ I just finished building...and have met with little success and loads of reinstalls. (Cheat-mode reinstalls....Ghost is a very worthy toy ;)
Problem is that I NEED those old emails to move to the new system with me....any ideas that DEFINITELY work?
Motherboards are different, so I can't just do a Ghost restore, although if I know EVERYTHING that needed to be moved, and in what order, I might be able to do a partial restore with ghost....for now, it's right bloody annoying....
Carey's answer:
You can do this by first backing up your mail. For more information on how to accomplish this, visit this link: http://www.oehelp.com/OEBackup/Default.aspx.
