Merging two message stores

I have two message stores for Windows Mail on my hard drive. I am using one
as my current store. The other one I had used a while ago and then abandoned
to try other email processors. When I resumed using Mail I started anew.
Don't ask me why.

I now would like to import the messages from the old store into my current
store. Can you suggest a way I might do that?

Paul

Do you have access to a IMAP server? If so, copy tehm up to the IMAP
server and make them uniified.

In Windows Mail, File, Import, Messages, choose
"Microsoft Windows Mail 7", point it to the old message store.
