Copy the 4.7 mail files from the CD to a temporary folder on your       hard drive. The files you want are the ones without extensions (Inbox,       Sent, etc.; not Inbox.snm or Sent.snm).       3. Remove the copied files' read-only attribute.       4. Rename the files if you don't want them to overwrite mail files with       the same name.       5. Copy the adjusted files into your 7.2's profile's       \Mail\ |
