Tom,
 
I don't know which versions of Outlook Express you are using and it may not
work but it is worth trying to do an import of the backed up data files.
Try going to "File", "Import" and follow the selections there.  You may not
be able to browse to the back up and it may not recognise the files if they
are not of the right type but it's certainly worth a go at least.

Hi Jamie,
 
old computer dead! Wondered that myself, but, seems daft since backing up
should be in case of a crash.

Tom,
 
Do you still have access to the old computer even after the crash or did you
have the data stored somewhere else?
 
I think you will need to perform an export and then an import into the new
computer for it to be recognised by Outlook Express as I think that the
folders are encrypted to link to a specific identity.
 
If you don't have access to the old computer, however, I'm not sure how you
would do this.
 
Sorry not to be of more help.
 
Jamie

Have a problem with outlook express. Computer crashed and had to get a new
one. 
 
Coppied the old message store to the new computer, but, only the in-box
shows as it should. 
 
Sent items shows as 0 even though a big file.
 
Any ideas.
 
Tom
