|| Easy to resolve.
|| First make sure both PST files are open in your profile and that you
|| know the name and location of the file you want as your default
|| delivery store, then designate it a such he
|| 1.. On the Tools menu, click E-mail Accounts.
|| 2.. Click View or change existing e-mail accounts, and then click
|| Next.
|| 3.. In the Deliver new e-mail to the following location list, select
|| where you want new messages delivered. (If you never specified a
|| custom display name for this .pst file, you probably see two entries
|| for Personal Folders files. Select the one that is not highlighted
|| if you want to change to the other. When you click the arrow to show
|| the list of files, click the second Personal Folders entry in the
|| list.)
|| Then just drag and drop any entries from your old default PST file
|| into your new one. Once you're done, just R click and close the PST
|| file that is no longer your default.
