This would depend on the versions of the mail client & web browser you're
using, which you haven't mentioned.

Outlook Express 6 does not exist in Vista. MS changed it to Microsoft
Mail, so it might not be directly transferrable.

Use export favorites in IE menu file tab. Creates bookmark.htm to the
location of users choice as a backup. Use import to recreate it all in your
new PC with IE.
