How import from Windows mail emails.
I recently bought a new laptop and I use free email of Windows that comes with the computer. I used this program on my old computer (I think it's Windows Mail or Windows Live Mail). I exported my old emails and a subfolders and I would like to import to my new computer, but there is no option to import. Nothing under the settings and I can not find the file menu in the new email (used t be on top right). I exported the email fine but the screen in this new laptop (which has Windows 8) is very different.
OT: Import emails
Hi Said,
You will not be able to import the mails in the mail, instead of this application if you have e-mail messages in your Windows live mail, you can synchronize your mail app outlook.com e-mail so that all emails in the outlook.com e-mail appear in Windows 8 Mail app. As an alternative, you can also install Windows live essentials in Windows 8 import back the mails that you exported and use for reference.
I hope this helps. Let us know if you have other problems with Windows in the future.

import from windows mail emails from a broken vista pc
My 32 bit Vista computer died - power, card mother etc. I have Acronis Disk full backups on a daily and external drive Acronis cloud of my files 'user '. What I don't have is a Windows Mail systems working group to export my old emails. When I run Thunderbird, are there emails in any way I can get these old backup, even if it means going from one place to another to get them.
As a temporary measure, I am now on a Windows 7 64-bit system.
If someone can help, but needs more information, let me know.
Thank you.If your drag / drop off the mail will find themselves in some folder you \drop in.
A better solution would be to use the add-on from the import export tools if you have several nested folders as it will import a folder and the subfolders. The add-on will recreate your folder structure. It you choose to import the messages in a folder and its subfolders.

How to import emails from Windows mail to Outlook. I have recently upgraded to Windows 7 and want to use Outlook 2002 for email from Windows mail program is no longer usable.
The following versions of Microsoft Outlook are fully supported on Windows 7;
- Outlook 2003
- Outlook 2007
- Outlook 2010 (when it came out)
It is recommended to always update your version of Outlook directly after installation to take care of any question of incompatibility which have been corrected.
Previous versions
Another version of Outlook is not supported on Windows 7. Although you may install it, any compatibility issues is not corrected. For example;- Outlook 2002/XP works on Windows 7, but it has the same problems remember password when using Windows Vista.
- Outlook 2000 cannot be installed in Internet Mail Only Mode (IMO) and must be installed in company/workgroup (CW Mode) Mode to prevent a mistake wab.dll.

So I was testing on some things with windows that I hadn't used before and thought I'd give mail windows to try because it combines emails. I didn't know that it would take all of my emails from my Aol account. Emails are in my windows mail inbox but they are very important and I need it in my Aol pronto account. I plan not using windows mail at all because it did not work with my other email provider. Is there any other way, in addition to passing all the emails to get back them on my Aol Inbox?

Hello
I have used Vista before I put now to Windows 7. On Vista, I used Windows Mail as my email client. Now on Windows 7, I would use Outlook 2007 and import my old emails.
Before I upgraded to Windows 7, Vista help - I exported all my emails from Windows Mail on my external hard drive, where I now .eml files and in each subfolder of emails, I have a winmail.fol file.
After I installed Windows 7 and Office 2007 now, I tried simply to import the files exported from my external hard drive by: "file-> import-> import Internet mail and addresses-> choose the folder to the top folder with the files of e-mail-> OK" However, I always get the error message: "the mail folder not could be opened. If another application is using this file, please close it and try again. "I don't understand what is wrong and what needs to be changed that it works.
I tried the things:
* On Windows 7 now: I activated Windows Mail and imported the exported files, which worked well. Therefore, I am currently using Windows Mail as my standard client on Windows 7. Now on Windows 7, I exported my emails again to Windows Mail and tried later import new files exported into Outlook 2007, as described above. I get the same message error ("could not mail file be open...").* On Windows 7: I downloaded and installed Windows LIVE Mail. Imported from my original
(exported under Vista) of e-mails from my HDD external and exported them once again, in the hope that Outlook 2007 may be more willing to import files exported Windows LIVE Mail. It didn't work either.* On Windows 7: I opened the folder with the emails on my external hard drive and Outlook 2007 and dragged the .eml file in Outlook 2007. It worked, in a sense, that I got the emails and the content of these emails in Outlook 2007. This method is not, is to import the email title and time when he received etc. This method is therefore unnecessary.
* On Windows 7: I've always been able to import my contacts in Outlook 2007.
I really hope someone can help me and describe what I do to import my emails.
I appreciate all help.
See you soon

New system: Windows 7 Ultimate (64) & Outlook 2007Prior to installation, we have saved copies of records of e-mail and address books for the two users on a disk partition. These same files are also still available in windows.old.
Import in Outlook 2007 feature, I cannot select a directory where the old files/email address. He just made a kind of research and can't find anything.
I wish that prospects to find them and convert a PST file but can't seem to make it work. I tied each combination in the functionality of Outlook 'import' and even tried to drag the old emails in the outlook Inbox (just create a new email with the .eml attachment file)What should I install Windows mail, that he could recognize the old addresses / and then inport to Outlook? Maybe then Outlook will look for them in their actual location?
A little frustrated...
How did your question related to Windows Update, Al?
You cannot import data from Windows Mail directly in Outlook. See...
How TO migrate [Windows mail] Outlook (when you have only the message store files)
http://www.HOWTO-Outlook.com/HOWTO/migratefromoewlm.htm#FILES_ONLYIn your case, you must first download/install Windows LIVE Mail and then import data from Windows Mail in this e-mail client. After that, you can EXPORT data from Windows LIVE Mail to Outlook (compared to import the data into Outlook).
Yes, this is all very confusing. Adding to the confusion:
1. you must set Windows LIVE Mail as your default for mail in CUSTOM (<>) item Set Program Access and computer by default in Win7 before any function send to or MailTo will become available.
2. you will find general support for all e-mail Win7 Clients in this forum: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7network/threads
3. you will find support for Windows Live Mail in this public newsgroup:
http://www.Microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/list/en-us/default.aspx?DG=Microsoft.public.Windows.live.mail.desktop4. you will find support for Outlook in these forums as well as in this public newsgroup:

Import e-mail messages from Windows mail to outlook 2007
I damaged an old laptop and the hard drive is now in a case that I can access via USB.
I want to transfer my emails from WIndows Mail in the old hard drive to Outlook 2007 into my laptop current. How to do this please?
Hi Tony,.
You can always open Windows mail? In this case: the open, select the e-mail messages you want to copy, create a folder on a USB or other portable device, paste messages, transport the unit, open, select all the messages and copy it (ctrl + c), then paste in Outlook.
The official way would be: file, import and Export Wizard. But I'm sure you will all future posts.
Kind regards
