Copying PST files from work onto home computer

[ILull]

I have backed up my PST files from my work computer and want to be able to
access them on my home computer. I have never yet used Outlook on my home
computer and I obviously don't have Exchange Server at home. How can I set up
Outlook at home to be able to upload the PST files there? Thanks.

Copy the pst files to a folder on your hard drive. From within outlook, go
to tools/options/mail setup (in Outlook 2003 - something similar in other
versions). You will see a "data files" button. Click on it, then click on
"add". Follow the prompts to add your pst files. Once added, back out of
the dialog boxes. You may need to close/open Outlook but the pst contents
will then show in your mail folders area.
