I recently moved my PST file to my new computer. Data is there; including my
Rules, but I had to import my Junk mail lists.
However, I've discovered many missing features: Signatures are gone, spell
check doesn't come up, my text format is gone, e-mail addresses don't fill
in unless I click the TO: field and type them into the Search field of the
pop up list.
I followed these instructions to configure Outlook 2007 on my new computer;
which, btw is Vista 64-bit :
"To restore your pst-file, copy the file to the location where you want to
work with it like; D:\My Documents\My Outlook\Temp.
If you restored from CD/DVD, make sure you uncheck the "Read Only" file
attribute by right clicking the file and choosing Properties. Now open
Outlook and connect to the file by choosing; File-> Open-> Outlook Data File…
You can now check if the backup was successful and you made sure you backed
up the right file."
