Restoring Outlook folders.

I restored my sister's outlook folders the other week. I didn't try to make Outlook Express open the folders; I just put them in the right directory and it all came back when next I opened OE.

OTOH, if you'd been using the full version of Outlook, then you may be out of luck; I've had problems with .pst files from the full version of Outlook before.

Don't know--that's why I wrote "e.g." ;) -NT - (tseliot) - (1) - March 6, 2002, 05:01:38 PM EST

Maybe PMMail2000 will do the job. - (Another Scott) - March 6, 2002, 05:11:45 PM EST
