Ervin, I recommend you take a look trough this document. After you do this (but on the same machine as you're using) then do file import mail & addresses - from outlook express 6. Windows will find every store on your computer, at which point you can import them into your new store. In the case of having inbox, inbox(1) and inbox(2) you can drag all the messages between folders to organize them appropriately. then delete the extra inboxes. BTW once you have your email folder set up as recommended above I recommend you copy your address book to that location and go into tools accounts and export your accounts to that folder. In this manner you can easily backup your OE email stores, addresses and account info.

Then I renamed the old Inbox.dbx to Inbox (1).dbx and now the emails from the real(old) Inbox folder are visible. But the problem is that the folders from the "old" Inbox folder aren't visible. I suppose that I need to force the OE to consider(to shift back to) the Inbox.dbx as the default Inbox folder(and not Inbox (1).dbx as now) and then the tree structure of my old Inbox foder will be repaired. But I don't know how find out where the OE stores the information about the default location of the Inbox folder? Are there any hints?
