Outlook Express is holding incoming e-mail. How do I get it to pass automatically into Office Outlook 2003?

The only similarity between Outlook and Outlook Express is that they are both email clients from Microsoft.

On the assumption that both of these programs are on a single PC and you want to move your mail files from OE to Outlook, here is what you need to do.

First, open Outlook and make sure it is set to be your default email client.

Then, open OE and set it to manually retrieve messages.

Next, export your messages from OE. If you have the option of formatting the file for Outlook, use that. Make sure you know what folder the messages are stored in.

Close OE.

Open Outlook again.

Import the message file from OE.
