I migrated from my desktop (OL2000) to a new laptop (OL2003) and have a
problem. In 2003 I have two personal file folders...it appears one is for
97-2002 OL version and the other for 2003 ? I have only one pst file on the
laptop.

Also...both folders seem to be identical ? However...the little icon is
different

Where did the 2003 folder setup come from...and can I delete one or the
other. When I have tried...it says you cannot delete the main mail folder ?

Are you saying that in OL2003 you have a Personal Folders (pst) file for
each individual email account you have...unlike in OL2000 when you could
have all email accounts in one Personal Folders pst file ?

Thanks, Tim

On Chrsitians link...the isntructions say if "1" doesn't work...then:
If it does not help, please create a new profile


Control Panel | Mail | Show profiles

I run OL on both 2000 and XP..so when I checked the control panel/email on
2000...of course there were no profiles...only email accounts...I have now
checked the XP control panel/email...where here are profiles....deleted the
profile and created a new one...and the second PF is now gone in
OL2003...Thanks

I see nothing there that says anything about a PST file not being able to
support more than one email account.
Neither do you, right?

In Outlook 2000 this option is only available in workgroup-mode, but not
in internet-mode in that your OL 2000 apparently is configured.
