Register or log in to remove.

Copy the .dbx files to a folder on the Desktop, start Outlook Express,
File > Import > Messages > Microsoft Outlook Express 6 > Next > Import from an OE6 store directory
Browse to the folder on the Desktop to complete the Import.

Or another option which I prefer is True Image.
