Transferring settings to a new computer

[Guest]

O2003.

I know I can transfer PST and PAB files to a new computer. But is there
some way of transferring all the settings for the various POP accounts I have
setup in Outlook? I don't want to have to set them all back up.

THanks.

No, accounts are not exportable.

OL 2003 doesn't use the PAB. It's obsolete. All address information is
kept in the Contacts folder.

Windows XP has the "Files and Settings Transfer Wizard". I've heard some
use it successfully.
