It's not going to be easy.
You have two options.
1) Install Outlook 2003 on the XP machine, attach your existing pst file,
then import messages in OE.
2) If you cannot install Outlook on your new machine (i.e. if it's an OEM
version for example) then download and install a trial version of Office
2007. Do the same thing then as above.

If you can do (1) above, then it begs the question as to why you want to
revert to OE in the first place....(and BTW you CAN'T "install" OE on an XP
machine - it comes automatically with the OS...)
