Two sets of personal folders

[Guest]

In Outlook 2003, I have two sets of personal folders. The set at the top of
the Outlook bar appears to be the default set. However, I have imported a
PST file from another computer into Outlook, and its personal folders now
appear below the top set. I want to make that second personal folders set
the default set, so that new email goes in there, not in the top set. Can I
delete the top set of personal folders? If not, how can I tell Outlook to
use the second, bottom set of folders, not the top one?

I will appreciate advise.

Choose your default .PST in Tools | E-mail Accounts | View or change
existing e-mail accounts...the dropdown box below the list of accounts.
Once you've done that you can close the set of folders you don't need --
right click the root folder and click Close. The file will still be on your
hard drive if you want to open it again later -- which reminds me to tell
you that you should never need to import a .PST into Outlook; just open it
using File | Open | Outlook Data File.
