I set up Outlook Express in the wrong account. How do I
move it to the other account?

Hey Steph,
Well the best way to this, is to setup another Outlook Express account.
Hope this information helps you out.

Hi,
Move the .dbx files from the wrong user profile to the correct one, look
under:
C:\Documents and Settings\<wrongusername>\Application Data
and copy them to the same folder under the <rightusername>. Then, log on as
that user and open Outlook Express. Click tools/options/maintenance and then
click on the store folder. Browse to and select the files you just copied.
Follow the prompts to import them.
