Computer Crashed, How do I access Outlook Mail Account from anothe
Assuming you are working with a POP3/IMAP account, you will need to copy the
*.PST file(s) off the broken computer to your good one. Since you didn't
mention what operating system you where using, I can give you a rough idea
on where to look under Windows 2000/XP.
\documents and settings\userid\local settings\application
data\microsoft\outlook
and/or
\documents and settings\userid\application data\microsoft\outlook
If you back the *.PST file(s) to a CD, make sure you don't burn the CD at
anything faster than 4x. Take CD to new computer and copy the *.PST file
back to the hard drive (e.g. My Documents). Make sure the read-only
attribute is removed. Configure Outlook to connect to your ISP and to get
at the old PST files, use File Open Outlook Data File (or Personal
Folders depending on version of Outlook in use).
