Retrieve Outlook Express Emails in a Server

 From your description of the problem, you want to get your emails from your laptop with a Windows XP does not work. I suggest using a CD like Hiren's boot CD, which will allow you to boot the laptop from the CD and access folders and files on the hard disk. Let’s start:

• Download Hiren’s Boot CD image (.iso file) and Burn it to a CD.
• Boot your Laptop from the CD and select: Mini Windows XP, and wait for the system to load.
• 
•  
• You get a classic desktop, Now click : Start > Search > For Files and Folders
• Outlook Express stores messages in different folders (Outbox, Inbox, Deleted Items …) and every Outlook Express folder is a file format « .dbx ». So, we will search for all DBX files by typing “ *.dbx”.
•  
• 
•  
• We press « Ctrl + A » to select all files > right click > Copy, and paste it to your flash drive.
•  
• Eject your flash drive and shutdown your Laptop.
• Until now, you save your emails, let’s import it to a new PC.
• In another PC, Open up Outlook Express, and configure it as usual.
• When finished, click File > Import  >  Messages,  choose “Microsoft Outlook Express 6”  and click Next.
•  Select the second choice  "Import mail from and Outlook Express 6 store directory".
• 
•   You now need to browse to your Flash Drive, and select your DBX files:
•  
• 
•  You can select either individual folder to import, or import all the folder . We've chosen All folders. Click the Next button to continue:
•  
•  When your emails have been imported, click the Finish button. it's Done.
