Hi all,

I purchased a PocketPC (Toshiba e740) several months ago, and now I am
upgrading to a new PDA. I am selling the e740 to a friend of mine, and I
would like to give them everything that came with the it. That includes a
copy of MS Outlook 2002. Of course, I have already activited this copy. I
would like to transfer the license to my friend, so she can use Outlook
2002, and I can use something else. How do I do this?

I tried to get help from Microsoft, but they wouldn't help me, because my
product ID was for an OEM version (I guess the bundled version of Outlook
2002 with the e740 is an OEM version?).

According to http://www.microsoft.com/permission/copyrgt/cop-soft.htm:

License Transfer
If you are seeking permission to donate or transfer software product,
software licenses, or hardware loaded with Microsoft software to another
party, you may do so without obtaining written permission provided you
follow the terms and conditions of your End User License Agreement
(EULA). All transfers of license, either through a sales transaction,
donation, or gift must include all product documentation, product
manuals, original disks and licenses. Further conditions of transfer may
be included in your EULA. The individual or entity giving up their
software and license(s) must understand that they are giving up all of
their rights to the transferred software, including all rights to
upgraded versions of the software.

You must provide to the buyer ALL materials for the operating system,
software, or whatever is all included in the sale. You must NOT keep
any portion of those items or copies thereof. If you sell the stuff to
someone, you don't keep to keep any of it (other than the "results" or
output of those products).
