I use OE6 on XP Home SP2. After creating a new user and copying all of the dbx files to a folder to import into OE6 according to the KB article on recovering past messages, I tried to do the import from the folder and OE6 crashed (the Microsoft message about having to close the app down and do I want to send a report to MS). To see if some of the dbx files were bad and some good, I separated some of them into different folders and again tried to import. Again, the crash.

I don't see why these files would be corrupted or that the import process not work. I have made it work before. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
