Default Importing emails if Outlook reinstalled on new HDD?

Apologies if this has been covered a million times before.


It has and Google Groups would have made it easy for you to find those prior
times.

I am upgrading my boot HDD and making my current boot drive, which
contains Outlook, my slave drive. If I reinstall Outlook 2003 on my
new boot drive how do I import all the old emails and contacts. Can I
just copy/paste the pst file or is it not that simple, or is there an
easier way? Or should I reinstall Outlook 2003 on the slave drive? I
am running XP Pro.


Do not export or import. See this:
