Default Importing Messages from Netscape 7.2

I am converting form Netscape mail to Outlook Express. My old messages from
Netscape Communicator (4) were all imported with no problem. However,
messages from Netscape 7.2, which I've been using for the past 2 yrs, aren't
imported. Does anyone know how to do this or how to save Netscape 7.2
messages in *.snm format (Communicator format)?

Thanks.

Import them into Communicator and then OE.

how to import netscape messages into outlook express


http://home.att.net/~cherokee67/ns7mailtoOEorO.html

The easiest solution is to install Netscape 4.xx.

With Netscape closed:
First, make a backup copy of your Mail Folder
Copy the Mail files without the MSF extensions from the Netscape 7 / Mozilla
Mail Folder
Paste the files without the MSF extensions into the Communicator Mail Folder

NOTE: you must open the Netscape 4.xx mail folders once
This will create the index files (SNM)
Close Netscape 4.xx

Open Outlook Express:

On the File menu, select "Import", and then click Messages
Select Netscape Communicator, and then click Next.
Ensure the path to your messages is correct, and then click Next
Choose All folders to import all the messages, and then click Next.
You can also choose Selected Folders to import messages from one or more
folders.
