Default Accounts Backup/Restore

you can export the messaging subsystem key but unless the computers are
identical, you're better off making a new profile from scratch - moving them
between machines is almost a surefire way of corrupting the profile.

Isn't it a matter of exporting portions of the Registry? Which part
exactly?

Since I plan to reinstall my OS and reinstall the Office package what
is the
procedure to backup/restore all account settings in Outlook 2007?

Use the "Save My Settings Wizard" utility that is included with Office
and is added as a shortcut under the start menu.



Not in Office 2007, unfortunately. In 2007 there is NO easy way to back
up account settings.
