My saved emails are in the format .fol. Anyone know about this format

I had Windows Vista with Windows Mail.  I used the export option to back up my email because I sent my computer to be fixed.  I got another computer which has Windows 7.  I am trying to import my backup email.  The files have been imported but not messages.  the message format is .fol (FOL file type).  Help!

Of http://www.file-extensions.org/fol-file-extension

MAD files are created only, that the user exported e-mail messages and folders of Windows Mail e-mail. The exported messages are stored in the same directories as in Windows Mail and in each directory is created, file winmail.fol (Windows Mail) or wlmail.fol (Windows Live Mail). If messages are imported to Windows Mail or Windows Live Mail, they are sorted for directories, they stored prior to export. If fol files do not exist, Windows Mail will import e-mail messages too, but it will not sort them to the directories.

***

Not producing a fol file seems to happen when your backup is not on the C drive.

Sorry for the bad news.
