    How can this be achieved most easily? I don't have access to Bluetooth link or IR port

    How big is the file? Can you burn it to a CD, or copy it to a floppy disk?

    I presume both PCs have Ethernet cards, should we need to do a direct connection?

    I dont even know where to look for the file with the mails.. Where can it be found?

    so all the mails are inside the same file?

    find all your dbx files. copy them a cd and then onto new pc in same folder they came from usually,
    C:\Documents and Settings\yourname\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{8D32DF8B-D3B8-4783-A0C5-FE37E2FC8659}\Microsoft\Outlook Express

    then start outlook up and it should read them from the folder, if not goto file>>import and find file that way dbx file that way.
