Backing up pst file?

[Michel]

Hi,

If all goes well I will get my new computer delivered today. As a result I
will be moving quite a lot of files from my old system to my new system. One
of these files will be the Outlook pst file, the file containing my e-mail
messages. In the past I made copies from this file, and burned them on a
disk. But I'm not able to read the pst file on the disk. What I would like to
know is what I need to do to:
- close the Outlook pst file on my old system;
- move the pst file to the new system;
- use the old pst file as an archive (in stead of as my mailbox);

Any one know what I need to do?

TIA,
Michel
