Migrating using Symantec Ghost

[Pat Estes]

We are going to migrate over 1000 workstations to Windows XP and want to save
as much as we can of the user's Office settings. Management places a high
priority on the drop down email list in Outlook. This is in the "To:" bar,
when you start an email address you get a History list of other emails you
have typed.

We use Symantec Client Migration to move the user, but this part does not
come over to the new machine after Ghosting. Does anyone know where this
info is stored? Also do you know how to get that stuff to move?

Thanks,

Pat Estes

It's stored in the user's .nk2 file and is mail-profile-specific. See http://www.slipstick.com/config/backup.htm
