MS Outlook Express message folder location

Had old computer. Said computer died. Got new computer and usb HD enclosure. Now I can access old HD. Problem is, is that I would like to access my old email that is stored on the old HD. Old system was OE6 on Win98 2nd ED. New system is WinXP OE6

I tried to import them but I can’t find the message files, nor any pst files. Anyone have any idea?

You’re looking for a bunch of files with the extension .dbx - one for each OE folder and another called folders.dbx that is a sort of index.

Thanks, and I got them, but in a more roundabout fasion. I was able to boot from my old drive via USB. Slow, but I was able to track them down. Then I rebooted and imported them.
