Default Outlook email help.

Hey guys. Having issues getting my Outlook emails and auto-collected addresses from an old, almost dead computer, to a new windows 10 non Outlook computer. I'm baffled. Any ideas?

What new email app are you using in Windows 10? You can always export your old e-mails, contacts, calendars, etc. from Outlook as a ".pst" file, then import them into your new e-mail client providing your new client supports importing .pst (or .ost) files.

For now web based hostmonster. Is there another better app I should be looking at? The computer we are hoping to export from is "compromised", as in on it's last legs. I tried to transfer the emails from a backup but it won't let me. Any help is appreciated.

This may help if your existing email host with your Outlook account is using IMAP
