Hello Riana, You can find the location of your .PST files by going under your control panel, opening the "mail" choice, and then tabbing to the data files button and depressing it by using the spacebar. Use tab key to move through the dialog box until you find a list of your .PST files and their location. You will likely have an archive.PST, Outlook.PST, perhaps a backup.PST and maybe others. If I remember correctly, the path for them is c:\documents and settings\userName\local settings\Microsoft\Outlook. However, the data files button should bring up the "mail setup" dialog that has the list of files and locations.
You can import .PST files or comma separated value files using the import wizard in Outlook. It can be found in the file menu. Choose to import from another program or file and you will find a list of the supported file types and programs from which Outlook will import. Outlook Express 6, CSV Windows, and PST are among those types. You can also import addresses from Outlook Express if you choose to import Internet mail and addresses. You will get choices for importing messages, addresses, etc. Choices will be in the form of checkboxes. There is also an import/export wizard that can be activated by using the export/import file menu choice while in Outlook contacts. Take care.

Hello Listers, I have about 40 folders in my outlook 2003 inbox. Using jaws 9 or 10, how can I back up all the pst files, [that's what someone told me it falls under], to an external hard drive, as I cannot find it's destination with a file search? Secondly, how does one restore the said email folders, also the addressbook, on a different computer, retaining all the saved email messages?
