Import/Export Outlook 2003 Mail Account Settings

[RVFmal]

I want to transfer the mail account settings that I have on my home PC to my laptop (and I have a few).

However there is no option to import or export account settings in Outlook 2003. Am I missing something?

There's a "Microsoft Office 2003 Save My Settings Wizard" in the "Microsoft Office Tools". That will allow you to 'save' and 'restore' all Office settings to and from a file. I tried it and it works fine for backing up email account settings.

The only disadvantage is that the accounts can't be saved separately. It saves all of them in one file (as well as any other Office settings, I guess). So you'd want to be careful that you're not overwriting recent changes when you use a previously backed up file.

I don't know whether this works with Office XP or not.

Thanks AZ. However as is typical of my luck and of M$, it now gives me the error that my .pst file is invalid.

*sigh*
