Outlook itself!
It can pickup the info from OE installed on the same computer....or, it can pickup the mailboxes to a folder you manually copied OEs DBX files to.

Go to old computer...grab all of the DBX files from the Outlook Express install. I am assuming you know how Outlook Express stores all of its folders...and that you know how to locate them, and copy them to something like a thumb drive?
Now...transport those files via sneakernet to the new computer.
In Outlook...you can import e-mail from Outlook Express via a method that allows you to point it to a local "store folder"..and you point it to the directory of DBX files that you copied over.
First hit on Google

Scroll down a bit there's a link for importing when on different computers...which appears to match your situation.

Hey, but you forget to mention, if he doesn't have a SneakerNet Network, then that won't work. You've got have at least 1 SneakerNet switchbox, and a few SneakerNet cables, and at least two SneakerNet NIC.

Don't forget oil to lubricate and polish the sneakernet.
On a serious note: Really? This kind of thread leads me to wonder where exactly you received your "professional" training.

I have never been able to do this unless OE is installed i.e. an XP computer
When you choose import from Outlook it automatically gets them from the store, this is why I always have an old XP laptop in my car
I set it off doing the import while I'm doing other things

Have you noticed the data transfer goes much faster if you use those newer rounder shoelaces on your sneakers? Opposed to the old flat type? And the gold tips (aglets?) give it even more throughput! Just like Monster Cables!

I much prefer laceless sneakers. They make for much quicker connects and disconnects. Be sure to get good ones, though. The cheaper units have a tendency to not stay socketed.

You want to look into cross-country or track sneakers the cross-country are good when you have varying platforms to cover.
