Can't import OE6 inbox...
Posted by admin on Aug 29th, 2006
I have "inbox.dbx" from OE6 in C:\Mail on Vista. I followed the steps to import my messages into Windows Mail but I receive the following error message each time:"No messages can be found in this folder or another application is running that has the required files open. Please select another folder or try closing applications that may have files open."Even after I shut down Mail and reopen it the same thing happens.Any suggestions?Thanks.

Did you also get the Folders.dbx file? It's required to import the dbx files (any of them except news)."mcc"

Hi I had this problem also. What I did was to download a DBX file convertor. There are lots of free ones out there. google.co.uk/search?sourceid=navclient&aq=t&hl=enGB&ie=UTF8&rlz=1T4GGIH_enGBGB212&q=dbx+file+converter Try looking at this. I had saved mine on a separate drive so was able to at least read them.good luck"DGuess"
