In Microsoft outlook under the personal folders files I have a lot of sub
folders, which contains emails. Now what I want to do is to copy the folders
and sub folders only (without their respective emails) to another pst file ?

AutoArchive would do it but make sure you set a very old date so that none
of the items will apply to it. Another way to go would be to copy the
pst-file and do a search for all items for that pst-file. You can then
delete those so that you'll end up with an empty folderlist. Create a new
pst-file and copy the folderstructure to it to get rid of the "overhead"
from the old pst-file.

If you want just the folder names in another PST, enable archiving, set a
really sort archive date (one you know nothing will meet) and run archiving
once. It will create the folder structure in the archive PST.
Alternatively, use File>New>Folder to create the structure you want.
