How to export and import from/in Outlook 2003 & 2 Personal Folders?

[Guest]

First: I'm a power user of Outlook from many years and I never found the way to save my about 35 e-mail accounts with each different parameter (SMTP, POP, ecc...)
I can't believe that the only way is to copy them by hand on a paper...

Second: For a unusual condition I have two "Personal Folders": one is the main with alla folders and run very good, the other "Personal Folders" is empty and impossible to close or delete
When I try to delete appear this message: "The set of folder could not be opened
Thanks )

First: ever looked in the Startmenu? There is a Save My Settings Wizard
there so you can backup your office settings to one (big) file

Second: Do you see this pst-file in File-> Data File Management? If so try
to remove it from there.

1. Your account information is stored as binary data in the registry under
your messaging profile ( HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profile)

2. With Outlook closed, go tothe Mail icon in the Control panel (in the
Users group) to display your profile. Click the Data Management button and
see if you can remove the unwanted personal folder set. If you can't get
rid of it that way, you can either try to delete the bad reference from the
profile information in the registry or create a new profile.

I'm not shure, but I haven't chance to put all the 32 folders a the same time in new folder with a different name, but only one by one separately. But I must do it BEFORE the uninstallation...
I hope to be clear..
In other words... I must export the folders separately or is enough to export the folder that contains all 32 accounts?

profile information in the registry or create a new profile.Maybe I can try, after a full backup of .pst and export of the keys before the change... It is correct this way to proceed?
Thank You Very very much!
