Moving from OE 6 to Outlook 2002 on 2 PC's running XP

[Jane Casciano]

I have 2 computers, both running XP. My current e-mail
is running OE 6 on one machine, but I would like to move
it to the machine that has Outlook 2002.

I have tried exporting the messages from OE 6 but get an
initialize error for MAPI. I also tried exporting the
mail settings and importing them into Outlook 2002. But
Outlook 2002 cannot find the .iaf file. However, I don't
know what it is looking for or where.

The 2 computers are networked so I can move the files
back and forth, I just can't find out how to do it.

Thanks to anyone who can help.

All of the data must be on the same machine in order for the export to
work. You'll need to move the data to OE on the Outlook 2002 machine
first -- see http://insideOE.tomsterdam.com if you need help with
that -- and then export it from OE on that machine to Outlook 2002.
