Upgrading Office Versions - Previous Identities

[sploo]

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Intel

Hi - I've searched the forums and didn't find anything on this subject, so I apologize if I've missed it.

I've upgraded from Office X, to Office 2004 and finally to Office 2008. In my User Data folders, all the folders from previous versions are there, including some rather large identity files. Since Office 2008 has an identity file of its own, do I have to keep the previous ones? Could any of these old folders be deleted entirely? I need to clear out some space on my poor MBP.

Thanks much!

You can safely delete the Office X Identities and Office 2004 Identities if
you are satisfied that you have all the mail from those Identities imported
into Office 2008.
