Outlook Express files in Win7 - Help there are thousands and thousands of these files?

Eight years of Outlook Express for a friend, and they have saved the e-mails in a very organized file system, containing, odf, doc, elm, pdf, txt, and jpg files...

I can not believe she did not copy and paste the e-mail informations as a txt file, instead of saving the Outlook Express e-mails files.

She must have 8 or 9 thousand e-mails files saved in Audry Adams to Zora Zuma file folders. Now with a new computer running Win7 that does not support Outlook Express, how to find software that will open every time she clicks on a e-mail file in one of her hundreds of file folders that could be one of several sub folders...

I have installed Outlook, from Microsoft Office Suite 2002, but do not see a method to adding Outlook Express file support... Might someone have a suggestion, for another software to install in Win7 to allow her to have access the to her archive files. Windows live will work for her e-mail, but not the thousands and thousands of files she has in her archives...

Converting all of these files in place is going to be a 6 -7 months job converting a 100 a day... If they were saved in the Outlook Express I could import them into outlook, but they are saved in file folders and sub folders inside of sub folders...

Update:

No they do not open, I know/feel the messages inside the e-mail program can be exported to Thunderbird, Windows life (converted) but not the files in the hundreds of file folders she has accumulated over the years...

I am at a lost to help her... She is ready to pull her hair out... If the new hardware supported WinXP then I could downgrader her operating system and she would have a much faster computer with her files...

She has a rather large problem that I do not see a simple answer to solve, but still need suggestions...

Update 2:

Windows Live installed and now she can access her OE e-mail files in her hard drive and USB 2.0 Flash memory stick...

Update 3:

    Can´t you open them in Windows Mail? That is the e-mail client that substituted OE.

    As I examine your poem, I predicted all of the flaws you talked of. I additionally observed which you left us to our very own imaginations as to issues like hair colour and length, top, weight ect. We each conjer in our very own suggestions the imaginitive and prescient of attractiveness which could be Elaine P. I enjoyed examining this, and once I observed Annabella's answer, I appropriate over and found the %on poetsofmars. She is a personification (to apply considered one of your very own phrases) of gorgeousness. The imaginitive and prescient in my head regarded completely distinctive, however the photograph of Elaine did no longer disappoint me in the slightest degree, she is basically beautiful, as is your poem approximately her. How plenty can i say approximately this poem? too plenty, I concern, so i will hush collectively as i'm forward. Write on guy, write on. i like your artwork.
