I dont use Vista so;
The OL2003 mail accounts are stored in the registry, there are third party
apps that will save and restore these settings, whether they work in Vista
is another thing.
You can, within OE on the origonal PC import your Accounts, then Export them
to a file.
Whether in Vista you can then import these settings into Windows Mail to
finally, within OL import these settings I cannot answer but I would assume
Win.Mail has the ability.

Thank you for your reply
Yes I have 40+ email accounts used for myself and client support, etc....
I have a new comp running Vista Business. Office 2007 is
installed.
So, How do I move the email accounts from OL 03 to OL 07?
How do I copy the email accounts from OL 03 on the XP box to OL 07 on the
Vista box?

Your origonal Q was on how to move email addresses, presumably contacts?

now state that they are accounts.
So what exactly are you trying to move??
Surely your not saying you have through

Thank you for your reply.
I do not understand. your instructions. How is this done between
computers?
Are you suggesting to NOT import from the backup.pst file for
messages,
rules, calendar info,...
Last time I did a transfer the Email accounts did not move with the
pst
file.
I have 40 email address accounts in OL 2003, on the XP computer.
How do I get them from OL 03 to OL 07 on the Vista computer without
entering each manually?

You really don't want to transfer those settings between versions.
Configure your mail profile and link (don't import or overwrite
anything) the pst-file to Outlook by File- Open- Outlook Data
File.

Saturday Morn
NEW COMPUTER
I have a new comp running Vista Business. Office 2007 is
installed.
I have a backup.pst from OL 03 from the XP computer ready to
import.
I used the Office 03 "Save My Settings" wizzer on the XP computer.
But, it appears office 2007 does not have this wizzer.
And, of course, the OL 07 import wizzer assumes an existing
installation.
So, How do I move the email accounts from OL 03 to OL 07?
