Default OE icons changed

Ignore the fact that Photoshop is trying to open the files. If they are dbx
files then see what Bruce posted and import them as he referenced. If they
are mbx and idx files then they are from OE4 and and you need MBXtract
(www.oehelp.com/MBXtract/) to extract them as eml files which you can then
drag into OE folders.

I have been trying to figure out how to backup/copy my email settings and
messages and folders. I still am confused.
Is there a step by step for a grey surfer?

Also I had an old OE folder with the .dbx messages from long ago on Win98.
I would like to access them but
have no idea how. (incidentally the little icon beside them is from
Photoshop so Photoshop trys to open them if
I click on it.
Sound confused, I am.
