WTF?? I can't move my mail from Windows Live Mail to Outlook 2007?

[Zorpiedoman]

I bought a new computer. It came with Vista and Windows Mail. Got my mail
and addresses etc, imported into it just fine.

Upgraded the computer to Windows 7. No more Windows Mail. Downloaded
Windows Live Mail which I have been using for a few months. Way to stupid of
a program, so I bought Outlook 2007 so I could get back to a real piece of
software.

It found my OLD Windows Mail stuff and imported it all just fine, but all
the emails I have gotten since in Windows Live Mail it can't import. It's
all just a bunch of .eml files I finally found on my computer.

How the !%!@#! do I get my messages and contacts imported back into Outlook
2007.

Since they area all Microsoft programs, you would think this should be easy...

Drag the EML files into Windows Live Mail and then export them to Outlook from
there.

how are you trying to import them? From Live mail, export to microsoft
exchange.
