probably not.... are you using the same version of outlook at the new
workplace?

also - unless you had permission to forward them you could be in violation
of laws or employment contracts.

At my previous employment, I selected all of my Outlook contacts and
dragged
them into an e-mail, creating an attachment for each person. I then
e-mailed
it to my new workplace. When I arrived, I was less-than-pleased to realize
the contacts were saved as msg files and when I click on the file, it
opens
up a blank e-mail with the contact name as the subject line. Is there any
way
to recover my contacts from those files?
