I'm changing computers and want to transfer the contents of several Outlook Express folders to the new machine.

I'm running XP Professional and Outlook Express.

How do I find these folder on the local drive and copy them to my new machine?

I read prior postings that indicated that emails were stored at C:/Documents & Settings/(user name)/Applications Data/Identities

I tried this path, found nothing, checked for hidden files and still found nothing......

Any help would be appreciated.

Right Click on the Inbox and click Properties. There should be a line that reads "this folder is stored in..."
It should give you the path to where your Outlook files are stored.
