Restore IMAP files OFFLine- from old outlookexpress 6.0

[Sultan]

restore IMAP folder to a new installed thunderbird/Mozilla

Hello,
I add parallel outlookexpress Imap mail on the same machine - in other
word I can read the same message(s) BOTH in outlook express and
Mozilla 1.x email on the same old machine. ACCESS TO IMAP server is
nolonger possible - however, all of my emails CAN be read on teh old machine
- not on the new one

What is the best way to restore thsi same look and feel of my old IMAP
folders.

Issue two:

My Mozilla 1.x Mail on XP had been configured to read IMAP emails.
Have many subfolders - and copies of IMAP emails IS in my machine.
Now XP went under and I have new XP installed but Unable to restore the
look and the feel of my old IMAP in my new outlook express.

I also had parallel outlookexpress Imap mail on the same machine - in other
word I can read the same message(s) BOTH in outlook express and
Mozilla 1.x email on the same old machine.

What is the best way to restore thsi same look and feel of my old IMAP
folders.

Not many writeup on the subject out there.

Thanks


additioanl info
BTW,

I can boot old machine and can read all of my files fine- and that it
all.
I can not copy nor backup ...etc or even cut a cd of data -
when a new xp was booted on a new hdd it was able to copy old files -
i.e. outlookexpress and mozilla mail
hth

This newsgroup is for Microsoft Office Outlook, not Outlook Express; the two
are distinctly different programs. There are Microsoft newsgroups for OE
and you'll get much better answers to your OE questions from them. Having
said that, see if these help:
