Exporting and Importing E-Mail Account details

[Guest]

Requesting any information on how to actually export my email accounts from
outlook 2003 on one my desktop and then import into outlook 2003 on my
notebook

I have about 15 different accounts setup in outlook and I am looking for a
means to transfer the data between two machines

Any help would be appreciated

I already know how to export and import addresses, contacts, messages, etc

It is the actual email accounts I am refering to

Appreciate any guidance

Thanks

There's a Save My Settings wizard that may help:

Since you say you know how to Import/Export your data, I hope you are not
refering to OL Import/Export functions, which is never the way to deal with
the OL data file.

Hi - to nswer your question - yes I know how to copy the .pst from machine to
machine and setup etc

It is simply getting the OutLook email account details imported as they
don't appear to come accross when I install the existing Outlook pst file

That's because account informaiton is kept in the registry, not the PST.
Use the Office Save My Settings wizard to transfer your account settings.
