View Full Version : Importing to Live Mail from OE6

For many years, I have been using underscores before a group name in order
to
change the sort order to the way I like, i.e., If I need a temporary group
to hold bad addresses,
I may create a folder called "_______Bad Addresses."
I use the number of underscores to control the position in the list.
Unfortunately, when I try to import these into Live Mail, it screws up the
group names!
Since I have around 30-40 group names, it would be a pain to have to remove
all the underscores (and lose the sort order!)
Is there any other way for Live Mail to import these without screwing up
and/or
truncating the names?

Many thanks,
Dave
