Where does Win2k hide it's Outlook Express Emails?

[Viperoni]

yup, exactly that.
When I re-installed win2k, I couldn't find them!!!!
PLEASE HELP GUYS!!!!!!

hope you exported your emails before you reinstalled win2k. remember that windows will keep your outlook emails in your profile. when you reinstall win2k, you created a NEW profile.

proper way:
export your emails using outlook utility, like to a csv file.
reinstall win2k
import your csv file.

That's another problem!
Whenever I try to export, it gives me a "MAPI initialization error"
Idea's?

Or you can do a search for where you have your *.dbx files and then copy the folder over somewhere. After you reinstall win2k, import the messages from that folder in outlook express. Be sure not to have the files as "read only" (for instance if you were to burn the files onto a cd).. it won't let you import if you do.
