The place where stored is depend on your configuration. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>So the easiest way is searching dbx file with your "explorer" (or "File <DIV></DIV>>Manager"). <DIV></DIV>>Make the explorer search "*.dbx" file. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>After you find, you can import this mail folder on laptop. <DIV></DIV>>Open Outlook Exp. of your laptop , select <DIV></DIV>>"File(F)"-"Import(I)"-"Messages(E)", then follow the guidance. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Or you can also share the same mail folders with your desktop. <DIV></DIV>>"Tools(T)"-"Option(O)"-"Maintainance"-"Folder(F)"-"Change(C)", then change <DIV></DIV>>the configuration. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>I hope it makes sense. <DIV></DIV>>(Oh man, my English is terrible :-) ) <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Mikito Hayashi <DIV></DIV>>Tokyo, Japan <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV></div><br clear=all><hr>Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at <a href='http://go.msn.com/bql/hmtag_itl_EN.asp'>http://explorer.msn.com</a><br></html>
