||| I just added a new pc to sbs 2003 network, I also installed OL 2007

||| information that I imported back into outlook 2007. When I
||| installed outlook it automatically picked up the exchange mailbox.
||| So I then imported the PST file from the old PC to the new PC,
||| while importing it looks like it is doing the import but when it is
