[thelist] IE 5 Archive

I downloaded a copy of IE 5 from the archives last night. When I ran the 
setup it said it needed to download some other files from the internet, but 
it was unable to get them and the setup ended.  I wonder if this is because 
IE 5 is no longer available from Microsoft and that is where setup was 
trying to get the updates.

My real issue is that I am trying to move some email from a Win 95 machine 
running MS Internet Mail & News to one with Win XP and OE 6.  I have tried 
exporting from IM&N, but it only exports to Exchange.  I have tried copying 
the folders and renaming them, per MS instructions, but that did not 
work.  The reason I was trying to use IE 5 was to try to get the email 
files converted to a more current format and then import them into OE 6.

So, my question is two-fold:

1) Anyone know how to move mail from MSIM&N to OE6?
2) Anyone know how I can get the IE5 setup to run?

Thanks,

Norman
