I have Outlook 2000 and I upgraded my computer. I am running my email off a POP server. How to I move all my Outlook settings, emails, address, to my new computer?

Copy the PST file to a CD. Put the CD in the new PC. Copy the PST to a
folder on your hard drive and remove the Read-Only attribute. Open the PST
(File>Open>Personal Folders File) in Outlook. Make the PST your default
delivery location. You're done.

You might also want to export your account settings to a file 'cos they
aren't kept in the pst.
