Now what the hell have I've done
Win 7 E-mail messages import problem.
Just replaced my small hard drive for a larger one. The small HD had Win 7 installed.
Before replacing HD I backed up my e-mail messages that had been received and sent using Win Live Mail to a folder on an external HD.
I checked that folder to make sure the export had gone ok,I could see my individual mail accounts, 4 of them, in files within the folder, didn't occur to me to look further.
I installed the larger HD with Win 7, got it set up the way I wanted it, so decided to import back my files/ e-mail messages from the saved folder, unfortunately this failed, all 4 mail accounts/files are empty except for one file in each one, titled email.fol.
What have I done wrong? I still have the small HD that has Win 7 and all the emails, I can connect it back up but it is a pain, but where did I go wrong in the original export or import?
