Where does Outlook 2002 store accounts information?

[Guest]

Where does Outlook 2002 store informations about e-mail accounts, such as
logins, passwords, POP3 and SMTP servers? I need to transfer that settings
from a backup.

These are kept in the registry but the key wasn't designed to be transfered.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows
Messaging Subsystem\Profiles]

So if I'll transfer it, it wouldn't work?

It could work but because a lot more info is stored there you could
experience errors or slow Outlook performance and still ending up recreating
the mail profile.
