How can I disable mail accounts in outlook 2003, and how to export/import
accounts...??

This was very simple in earlier versions, but in this version I cannot find
these options..

Re import/export, I don't believe this is possible anymore, for some reason
(I miss it, too).

Re disable - you mean you just don't want to check a certain account when
doing send/receive? I don't have OL2003, but in XP, you'd go to your
send/receive settings and untick a box, I believe....
 
In Outlook 2003, you cannot export accounts. this was disabled in Outlook
2002.

And, what do you mean, disable mail accounts in Outlook? Simply remove the
account.

I mean to uncheck a mail account, so it isn't active while
sending/receiving. Of course it can be removed completely, but this isn't
very convenient since I have several such accounts, and since they cannot be
imported back later. And Then I must enter all account-data each time..

I cannot find an uncheck-box like in the Outlook XP and earlier v.

Ok, it was disabled..I miss that function.

I wish to diasble one or several mail accounts by clicking a check box. When
removing them entirely, it's a mess when I wish to see the mail in these
accounts again. Since they cannot be exported/imported anymore either, I
must enter all the account-information each time...Not very practical....

Strange that Bill has removed this very simple and practical function..

Outlook has never supported an import/export account feature - OE does but
Outlook is not OE.

Tools, Send/Receive Groups, Send/Receive settings. Create 2 or more send
receive groups to control how and when they are checked. Note that you can't
control it based on connection.

Good tip! Thanks.
But, weren't there a "disable" function in earlier versions of Outlook(Not
OE)?

Outlook 2000 and earlier did support importing and exporting internet mail
accounts. It was removed in 2002.
