« on: January 03, 2007, 07:46:52 AM »
Hello,

I just got a new PC... ( was the time for it ). I need to move all my Outlook Express mail from the old pc to this new one.. Anyone can help? ( I know how to move folders, but I don't know how to copy signatures, rules, settings, and contacts ) :-[

You could use a third party OE backup tool such as Outlook Express Backup Wizard.  For doing it manually, here's a good reference: How to backup Outlook Express (OE) Email.  And, here's Microsoft's page on How to back up and recover Outlook Express data.

I've used a manual procedure in cases where I've needed to migrate OE from one computer to another.  The Microsoft reference is a good explanation of the manual procedure.

That seems to be good one, assuming the awards and testimonials are genuine.  So, if you don't mind spending some money for software to do this, you should a tool that makes it easy to backup OE.
