First: I'm a power user of Outlook from many years and I never found the way to save my about 35 e-mail accounts with each different parameter (SMTP, POP, ecc...)
I can't believe that the only way is to copy them by hand on a paper...

Second: For a unusual condition I have two "Personal Folders": one is the main with alla folders and run very good, the other "Personal Folders" is empty and impossible to close or delete
When I try to delete appear this message: "The set of folder could not be opened
Thanks )

First: ever looked in the Startmenu? There is a Save My Settings Wizard
there so you can backup your office settings to one (big) file

Second: Do you see this pst-file in File-> Data File Management? If so try
to remove it from there.

1. Your account information is stored as binary data in the registry under
your messaging profile ( HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profile)

2. With Outlook closed, go tothe Mail icon in the Control panel (in the
Users group) to display your profile. Click the Data Management button and
see if you can remove the unwanted personal folder set. If you can't get
rid of it that way, you can either try to delete the bad reference from the
profile information in the registry or create a new profile.

>> I found a folder: Profiles/Outlook/9375CFF0413111d3B88A00104B2A6676 with all datas of the 32 accounts. Is safe and enough to export this item, uninstall O2003 and reinstall O2003?

Are there no problems in export/import with the name of this folder? I'm not shure, but I haven't chance to put all the 32 folders a the same time in new folder with a different name, but only one by one separately. But I must do it BEFORE the uninstallation...
I hope to be clear..
In other words... I must export the folders separately or is enough to export the folder that contains all 32 accounts?



2. With Outlook closed, go tothe Mail icon in the Control panel (in the
Users group) to display your profile. Click the Data Management button and

>> NOThing else than main default .pst from Data Management button. I try to find the bad reference in registry... but have the same name of the default (Personal Folder)... and I prefer to be careful.. because I found two folders with double "Personal Folders" key.

Maybe I can try, after a full backup of .pst and export of the keys before the change... It is correct this way to proceed?
Thank You Very very much!
