Question asked on Jan 4, 2014
OK, I'm lazy, didn't want to scroll through 50 pages of forum questions to see if this was addressed. I need to transfer e-mail folders from Live Mail on an old PC to Live Mail on a new PC. I understand they are .eml, not .dbx files, (Live Mail as opposed to Outlook). What process do I use to get them relocated? Can I export them to a flash drive (I have a 8 GB drive) and import to Live Mail on the new PC? These are mostly e-mail messages that were saved in storage folders that I want to be able to access. Any help or a link that would walk me through this would be appreciated.
