• during the transition from Outlook Express to Windows Live Mail, is the address book data stored and also the info in files

  I'm afraid that if I upgrade the form Outlook Express to Windows Live Mail, I will lose all e-mail addresses in my address book current as well as the information contained in the files - models etc.

  If you install WLMail on your XP machine, it has to import messages and addresses automatically and nothing will be lost of OE.
   
  If you like WLMail better than OE, you are a person better than I am.
   
  For specific questions from WLMail, ask here.

  It is relatively simple as you use and that you want to use WLM.

  You will need to copy a folder from where it is (the old installation) to another place where you know it will be (for example on your desktop)

  The folder is c:\users\your user name\app data (if it is not there, see the note below) \local\microsoft\

  At that point you will see a folder named oddly enough "windows live mail" copy on your desktop

  If you don't see the app data because it is invisible atm.  To make it visible, you need to go to your control panel > folder options > view > change to hidden folders (see figure)

  

  Once you have mail backed up on your desktop (or where ever) drag the folder from the desktop to the location for the new WLM (once again we C;-... just like above).  Just make sure that WLM does not run in time.  What wont be imported, it of passwords and rules.

  Accounts and data should now be in the new WLM when you open it.

  All Facebook contacts are listed in my Windows Live email account, I don't want to or we need them. If I want to communicate with them, I'll do so via Facebook.

  My email has been hacked so I want contacts as little as possible! I won't be able to post my photos to Windows live Photo so I don't want to remove the connection between FB and Windows all together! But when I try to remove a Messenger contact, if it's a FB contact, he does not have the delete option! Help!

  When you print an e-mail message entering, Thunderbird includes an entire page, or more than all the routing information related to the email.

• How can I import all my information in Outlook Express without duplicates?

  original title: IMPORT OUTLOOK EXPRESS

  HOW CAN I IMPORT OUTLOOK EXPRESS (OLD INBOX) TO THE NEW A DUPLICATED WITHOUT

  Never import in a current Inbox.  The Inbox must be small and not to accumulate a lot of messages, or it will self-destruct and you will lose all the messages.  Import into another folder.  You can use the method to manually import messages that is described here: www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#imp1 method excludes duplicates, but she does not them either, except when you import a folder already having duplicates.  My OEX program (www.oehelp.com/OEX/) will also import messages from the (relatively small) dbx files and directories of eml files and has a feature that removes duplicates.
