    Yep.....the Windows 7 version of Outlook/Outlook Express is called Windows Live Mail, you can set WLM up for your email server, and then accumulate all of your old emails in Outlook using the "export" function transferring them onto a flash drive, then on the new computer use "import" to transfer them into WLM.......they use the same file format. I just created a new directory under Mail in WLM, called "old emails", and imported them there. You can then sort and edit them at your leasure.

    You can even drag and drop the file into live mail.
    The difference between pigs and people is that when they tell you you're cured it isn't a good thing.

    The 21st century. The age of Smart phones and Stupid people.

    It is said that branches draw their life from the vine. Each is separate yet all are one as they share one life giving stem . The Bible tells us we are called to a similar union in life, our lives with the life of God. We are incorporated into him; made sharers in his life. Apart from this union we can do nothing.

    I'm talking about once you have the file there, you don't necessarily need to use the import function.

    It's kind of a pain between xp and windows 7 just to move a couple of files, especially when one will no longer be in use after the move.
