I didn't know it was in the profile. Do you know where the profile
data is stored? Ideally I'd like to just change the variable that
outlook uses to keep track of which emails it has downloaded so far.

While I know where the profile is
(HKCU\Software\Microsoft\WIndows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging
Subsystem\Profiles), I have no idea which key(s) in that tree keeps track of
the downloaded messages and it's not documented.

I guessed it would be in the registry, but I didn't notice any of the
Outlook registry keys changing when I downloaded some mails. (Apart
from SQMReceivedDate and SQMReceivedNumber, which I think are used for
reporting crash data)

It could be, for all I know, that one of the CSLID keys that the profile
points to is where the count is actually kept. If you have a registry
monitor, see if any keys anywhere in the registry change when messages are
downloaded.

Even if you find it, however, I'd be very surprised if a registry key export
and import would preserve the value.
