I have my trusty old Windows XP desktop which runs both Outlook Express 6 and MS Outlook 2007 (for two different mailboxes).
Last week I discovered that OE doesn't like Inbox.dbx files over 2GB in size. I was in the middle of downloading my mail when suddenly it threw up an error that it couldn't download the mail. I closed OE and restarted it, only to find that my Inbox (which had a large number of messages previously) now says "There are no messages in this folder"(!)
Checking the Inbox.dbx file confirms it's there but over the magical 2GB limit so OE probably can't read it. No worries, I thought, I'll migrate to MS Outlook as that can handle 20GB. The import wizard went well, only it didn't import anything from the inbox.
I can't point it manually to a file using the Import tool. Tried converting from .dbx to .pst but to no avail. I've taken a backup of everything (just in case) - but can anyone suggest a way for me to migrate the Inbox into Outlook? I'm at a loss on this one...
Thanks in advance
