export outlook emails, and keep attachments

A

Andy

Hi Everyone,

I want to export my emails (and attachments) from my old
computer to cd, then import from cd to Outlook on my new
computer. I believe I'm successfully exporting the email,
but the attachments aren't getting saved. How do I do it?

Thanks for any assistance you can provide!

Don't export your items, copy the .pst file to your CD, then on the new
computer, copy the .pst file to the hard drive, remove the read-only
property and use File->Open in Outlook to access your information. (Note -
do NOT try to overwrite your new .pst file created in Outlook. Just rename
it.)
