Oulook and Outlook Express email goes to either

[Scott Richardson]

I want my email to be opened in Outlook (2000) rather than in Outlook
Express. I think what is happening is that if I (or my secretary) happens to
open Outlook Express before opening Outlook, then the email is delivered to
the OL Express program. Is there more to this than just which program is
opened first?
How can I transfer the messages received in Outlook Express over to
Outlook?
Some of the messages are Net Folders Updates for our shared Calendar.
Outlook doesn't show receipt of those messages, and OL Express is showing
them as unopened emails to me. I will open these messages in hopes the
events are put on the calendar. Will transfereing these emails over to OL
2000 update the calendar?

If they both contain an account pointing at the same message server, it is
exactly which gets opened first. If you remove the accunt from OE or never
run it, it can't download the messages. Alternatively, you can modify the
account to leave a copy of messages on the server and then both will be able
to download them.

In Outlook Express, click File>Export>Messages.

I don't know.
