I just upgraded to OL 2003. I had some issues at first with messaging
interface errors, but was able to get past them by changing my profile.

When I changed my profile I lost my personal .pst folder and all the folders
and emails contained withing.

Is there a way to retreive on old .pst file? Can you help me?

Thanks
Austin

Any new profile will create a new Outlook Data File (PST file).
Your old one is still there. Just search for it (it may be a hidden file)
then configure your new profile to use it. Be sure you do so correctly and
don't try to import it or use it to overwrite your current file. The
instructions for doing so are here:
