OK, I have been using OE for about 2-3 years now for my Email and Newsgroup
reader. This past Christmas, I got a Pocket PC that came with Outlook 2002.
I plan to use t to be able to keep track of my appointments and such but I
would also like to use it as my new email reader. I also would like to use
it for newsgroups, if that's possible. Is there a way that I can transfer
all my settings, emails and newsgroup information over to Outlook or am I
forced to just start from scratch?

Thanks

OL has no Newsreader capability. In OL News is accessed via the OE
newsreader as it is from IE
With OL installed, and closed, In OE export mail/settings etc to OL. Then
set OL as yr default email prog.
Be aware if you run OE, with mail accounts defined, it will download any
mail. Either set it never to check for mail or remove accounts.
You can set a desktop shortcut for the newsreader only
"%ProgramFiles%\Outlook Express\msimn.exe" /outnews eg
