I am trying to transfer e-mail folders fromy old PC with MS 95 Outlook to my
new PC with MS XP Outlook Express 6. When I attempt to use the Import
Wizard, I get an error message when I try to select MS Outlook to transfer
from:

"Messages cannot be imported from the MAPI client. An error has occurred."

I have located the old mailbox folder, mailbox.pst, but the Import Wizard
does not recognize that file.

Try running Outlook and Exporting the mail to a format compatable with OE6
then importing from the saved file

You may need to install the relavent mail handlers into Outlook first
