I am about to wipe out my hard drive, but first, want to
save how my Outlook 2003 "looks and feels" including all
the settings, configurations, mailboxes, SMTP/POP etc.
Then, once Windows XP is re-installed, I will re-install
Office 2003. Apart from saving and restoreing the .pst
file, what else needs to be saved so I have Outlook just
like it was before?
 
The best thing for you to do would be to run the Office "Save My Settings" Wizard from the Office Tools Folder on your Start Menu. That will save most of your configuration options in a special file that you can save offline. Once you have re-installed Office 2003, you can run that same program to restore your old settings. The Office 2003 SMS Wizard will save your account setups without the associated passwords so be sure you write those down somewhere.
