Thats a more correct subjet. Sorry for x-posting, not shure which one is
best.

I'm trying to find a few of my own adresses/accounts, not others adresses in
wab or email in dbx, after an old XP stopped working with OE6.
When Exporting them they will be iaf, but where are they before?

And better spelling now.

'Shure' makes record player needles. But you can be 'sure' of that.

Email account information is stored in the Registry.
Passwords are encrypted so you can't read them.
I don't know what information you are hoping to find.

I know my password/s but cant recall exactly what some our my newer
Gmail-addresses was. With luck I'll find them in some mail .dbx or have to
guess what Gmail accepted.
Otherwise I've backed up most on a USB-stick.

Are you so sure? I'm not sure if Shure is still in business anymore.
That was many moons ago (phono needles and cartridges)

I stumbled onto this site. http://www.insideoe.com/ Seems to have a lot
of OE info. You might want to browse.
I can't believe others have not been in your same place and some
industrious programmer has not written a program to help you.
Keep poking around.

Are you saying that you no longer remember with whom you had e-mail
accounts? If you remember with whom you had/have e-mail accounts then
you don't need .iaf files and can simply recreate those as new accounts
in OE.

You'll find all OE accounts (email, news, lookup services) defined at:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Account Manager\Accounts

You will have to read the data values to determine if a subkey contains
information for an e-mail, news, or lookup account.

The password is encrypted so you won't be able to extract it from here.
You also cannot import it into a new instance of Windows even if you use
the same username for your account. Each accounts gets its own SID
(security identifier) and each account gets a random crypto seed. So
you'll end up importing a password that the new instance of Windows will
not decrypt correctly to get back your valid password. If you can't
remember your passwords, you'll have to contact the e-mail provider to
go through their "forgot password" procedure or ask them to reset your
password (and then change it to something you want to use).

The old XP installation won't boot, so how do you get to HKEY_CURRENT_USER?

Are you asking on behalf of Anton? Or are you implying that it cannot
be done (which is wrong)?
