Import Into Windows Mail

[Guest Rick Raisley]

In trying to fix up my completely screwed Windows Mail install, I've

tried Exporting, then Reimporting messages. I can't seem to import a

nice, clean copy of the messages and directory structure it only wants

to import a complete Export. Which has dozens of Recovered folders and

IMHO is severely messed up.

 

I have successfully been able to simply drag the EML files to a WM

folder. If I create all new folders, then manually drag the 25,000

emails from the appropriate folder, will WM reconstruct things properly?

Will this get rid of the Recovered folders (if I also delete them), or

will it put this all into NEW recovered folders.

 

Basically, can anyone just help me RECREATE my Windows Mail messages, in

a logical and orderly way (the way I have them visually in WM), and not

rely on Restored folders and the complete MESS they provide??

 

Regards,
