transfer old email messages

How do I export old emails from computer to new computer. I have tried as a .pst file, but can not import this into outlook or outlook express. all wizards are for internal transfer from Out to Out Express.

Instead of importing the PST file, have you tried overwriting the new PST
file with the old one?

Not a good idea -- overwriting .PSTs can lead to problems. Since the .PST
file can reside anywhere on the hard drive (that the user has access to, of
course), the original poster should put the .PST where he can easily find
it, then go into Outlook and use File | Open to open the file in his Folder
List.
