Hoping that this is an easy one... I'm trying to recover an Outlook Express 5 "Messages" document that I saved from our powerbook before the HD had to be wiped. I saved the entire "Main Identity" file under "Identities" (in Microsoft User Data file). The PB had OS 9.2.2.
I then just stuck the entire Identity file in the Identities file on our G4 (OS 9.2.2), gave the Identity a different name (not Main), and then open OE 5. I have the option to change identities okay, but when I open the second identity, there's just the "Welcome" message in the Inbox. No sign of any of the other messages --- even though the "Messages" document is 249.5 MB and contains about 6 months worth of email! Anyone know what the problem is here? Is there any way of opening these messages in OE (or any other program)? I'm obviously showing my Eudora past here, as I used to be able to just drag and drop message folders into Eudora and they'd appear the next time I opened the app. Any help greatly appreciated.
