Importing emails if Outlook reinstalled on new HDD?
 

Apologies if this has been covered a million times before.

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.

Thanks In Advance

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

Do not export or import. See this:
