1) You can change your default mail program by:
- Open Internet Explorer
- Go to Tools -> Internet Options
- Click on the programs tab
- next to "E-mail", select Microsoft Outlook

***You may still be receiving mails in Outlook Express because you still have it open. You need to close
Outlook Express and only open Outlook in order to EXCLUSIVELY RECEIVE mail in Outlook.

2)You can use the import function within Outlook to copy personal folders from other locations and to
copy Outlook Express data into Outlook. Just open Outlook, then go to FILE-> IMPORT -> (follow the
directions).
