Ok, this is a tricky situation, so hopefully there is a solution!

Firstly, I now have a SATA drive, so can't put my old drive into my
computer, I managed to borrow an IDE HD caddy, and just copied the files over
onto my new hard drive.

That all said and done, I then realised that there is possibly no way of
getting all my addresses and messages off the harddrive, even though it is
now copied on the new hard drive.

Scenario....old computer was using Windows XP, new computer is using Windows
Vista.....

I no long have access to the XP drive, does that mean my email data is
probably useless, because I didn't do a proper backup of the files, using
oebackup? Please help!
