Default Moving OE to a new computer

I was wondering if anybody could recommend either a freeware or fairly
inexpensive utility for moving all my OE settings and e-mails to a new
computer. Thanks for any and all help.

You don't need any program, just some instructions.

you can backup/export your messages and settings/address book to another
drive or a cd.

I use a program called safemail which I like and have been using for a few
years. I then copy to a cd using Avantrix DVD version.

These cost bucks but I find them easy and useful.

Regards,
