Tried that, but it only exports them to Microsoft Outllook. Managed to save them from that, but then how do you reload them?

Sorry, my previous should have worked but I was thinking of Outlook.

Try this instead:

Tools  >  Options  >  Maintenance   >  Store Folder

Make a note of the location of the store folder & then copy the files held within it. (You will notice the dbx files are named as Inbox, Outbox, Sent Items etc.)
