Again on Win Live Mail in W7...

When I export the Messages they are coming out
in a peculiar "order" in several subsidiary which
give in return empty files as Windows doesn't like
copying files from excessively long subdirectories.

Is there any other way than manual organization
of files before exporting them, or after - when
WLM is imported ?

TIA

Are you willing to let others know how you did it?

Also, try to mark your quoting so that it is intelligible...Like don't
use WLM?

Yes I do...- and sorry for delay...

I don't like WLM either. More... It's horrible.
So, how I did the Exporting and Importing WLM with
a multiply sub directories to avoid getting "empty"
files.

First - I exported it to a local HDD then I had to "edit"
the exported files manually, by cleaning all Usenet messages
and drug & drop all folders / files which were hidden in longer
than one sub directory. One is OK.
Second - was easy - I've imported all needed folders to a newly
set up WLM. And to my surprise it worked fine.

Ay - Part I sounds like a bit of a PITA...

Glad you figured it out, and thanks for letting us ("us") know :-)
