Using OE6 latest version and XP SP3.

I currently have about 50 folders with files adding up to about 155MB. I'm
about to buy a new computer that will be loaded with XP. How do I
copy/transfer these folders/files to my new computer? Under File/Export all
I can select is my address book. I need to also save and install all the
folders in OE in my new computer. A quick how to do it would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks.
