I just bought a new computer and transferred everything via Windows Easy Transfer.  I'd researched ahead of time, so thought knew all the issues I'd have and thought I was good.  All my OE mail supposedly transferred into storage files.  I found them and all the folders were there, albeit in a different order.  I checked several, and except for realizing I may have to reorder some, everything looked good.  Went into a sub folder this morning and found an email with the correct subject line, but displaying an incorrect email.   It was an email from another subfolder.  Started checking more emails in more sub folders.  The same misplaced email is in message after message.  What happened to my email???  After spending the entire weekend setting everything up, I am so depressed.

I have read and, I think, followed the instructions on how to export messages from OE and import them to WLmail. I do not get any error messages during the import and WLMail says that the import was successful. After I complete the installation, I can see a new folder (Imported Folder) under under Storage Files but when I click on it, it says there are no items in this view. Properties shows 0 messsages.  

 

Any suggestions as to what's gone wrong would be appreciated.  I'm switching computers from one with XP to one with Vista.  I didn't have any problem importing my contacts.

I have all my Windows Live Storage files, however; when I transferred them to my New Computer, they all came over inside two folders  I will show you what I mean:

STORAGE FILES

   Drafts                shoud be out

   Send items        shoud be out

   Deleted items   shoud be out

   Chem Bank       shoud be out

      CheapOair     shoud be out     

        Imported Folder

            Addr Book  this is my storage files.

            Adobe        this is my storage files.

            Aetna          this is my storage files, and there are many more following Aetna       

All my folders are under "Imported Folder"  If I delete the "Chem Bank" folder, I lose  all my Storage Folders.

THE FOLLOWING FOLDERS SHOULD NOT BE UNDER STORAGE FILES A THEY NOW APPEAR.  The are redunded files but I don't know how to delete them without Deleting everything below

 

ALL STORAGE FILES SHOUL BE UNDER THE "STORAGE FILES TITLE"

Starting with "Addr Book"

 

Help anyone?

I can't find my storage folders after staples backed up my failed harddrive on my other computer to my new hp computer.  

Talked with them and they only backed up my comcast supplier not live mail files.  Can I retrieve my storage files from microsoft live mail?

Thank you, Conna
