What mail server do you use? I might be able to help you if I knew.

If you use outlook express your mail files are stored in

C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Identities\{26588E00-9078-11D4-8CF2-9F98BBB1D921}\Microsoft\Outlook Express

The "{26588E00-9078-11D4-8CF2-9F98BBB1D921}" string mihgt be different on your computer. I'm using Win 98 SE. Hope that helps.

When you get your system up, if you decide to use OE, go to Tool/Options/Maintenance and click on the Store Folder. YOu can save or store your messages in any pre-created folder of your choice. You can do the same in Netscape too.
