Changing the e-mail store folder location?

[Quentin David Jones]

Greetings all,

I want to move my Outlook e-mail store to my 2nd hard drive.

How do I do that?

I have looked everywhere for the store folder setting, I can SEE it under
the folder properties, but I cannot see where to CHANGE it (it was easy with
OE.)

Can someone remind me how to move the e-mail store?

I am using Outlook 2000 with internet e-mail only.
Perhaps I need to install another option?

any help appreciated...

Close Outlook.
Move the PST.
Reopen Outlook. Tell it where you moved the file when it asks.

Sorry to jump in here, but this worked fine for my outlook.pst, but if I try
the same with the hotmail xxxxxxxx.pst, it just recrerates it at the
original spot. Can this be moved too???
