I had to perform a format/reload on my system, so I copied my c: drive to my
second harddrive. Well, I forgot to export my emails before I formatted. I'm
wondering if there's any way to get my emails off the second harddrive. Is
there a file I can copy over or something?

Thanks,
Auschten

Hi Auschten,
Yes there is a file called *.PST
default path is C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Local
Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook
This pst file is the most important file. Its incluse all your emails,
contacts...
So please open Outlook after you have find the pst file
FILE > OPEN > DATAFILE and point to the pst file.
You also have the chance to move this pst file to another location.
 
Awesome! Thanks!
