I've got more and less 50 e-mail accounts on Outlook 2002.
I'm trying to import them in Outlook 2003 on a networked machine.
Is there a way?
I read so many questions on this and no answers.
No tips? No tricks?
Neither an image copy? If yes, of what, exactly?

Thank you for any suggestion.

you could try exporting the registry, but it sometimes cause errors.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows
Messaging Subsystem\Profiles

you could also use the save my settings wizard, but it too isn't prefect
with outlook.

By trial and error I just found a way via OE:

Export to .iaf files from Outlook2000 (or 2002 ?)
Import these to Outlook Express 2003 ( without making it default email
client ).
Close Outlook Express
When you then start Outlook 2003 it automatically sees the accounts in OE
and suggests an import. Answer YES!

- But then you will need to reenter all mail account passwords the first
time you try send/receive.
