Import email accounts

[lewis]

I used Outlook 2003 on my PC. I purchased a new PC and installed Outlook
2007. I am able to "Export" an email account on Outlook 2003 to the new PC
(via network)in the form of an .iaf file. How do I import it to Outlook
2007? Tried File - Import - Import Internet Mail Account, but its only for
Express & Eudora. Have a few accounts and don't want to look for all
passwords,etc.

You can't unfortunately. You'll have to re-create them all manually.
AFAIK....

Try importing OE first, or maybe Win Mail

You can use Outlook Backup from ABF Software for this. I've used it to
migrate some complex account configurations. A migration from Outlook 2003
on Windows XP to Outlook 2007 on Windows Vista went without issues and none
of the corruptions you usually end up with when using Windows Easy Transfer,
Files and Settings Transfer Wizard or any other built-in solution.

If you decide to order use ABF-1HTJ8 to get a discount.

You'll end up with mail profile corruption then.
