Outlook Express mailboxes - thanks guys

Saw a thread the other day about compacting the OE mailboxes. I had been successful a year ago transfering mail from a 98 machine to another, but was having difficulty now doing it from the 98 machine to an XP machine.

I took your advice and changed the locations of the dbx files and it worked ok. Thanks.

BTW, FIND seems to locate the dbx files under 98, but I never could get it to find 'em under XP.
