Transferring computers

[Guest]

I am in the process of setting up a new computer but I have a lot of e-mail
that I don't want to lose.
Does anyone know how I can save what is in my inbox and then download it
back into outlook on my new pc?

Your operating system and Outlook version are both in play here. You posted
neither.
The file you need is your Personal Folders file (*.pst) It's where all the
mail, calendar, contacts etc are stored.

Take a look at these pages for info on Outlook data backup or transfer:
