How can you import email accounts to another computer with Outloo.

I'm trying to setup another computer but would like to import my email
accounts instead of re-entering each one. Is there a quicker way?

Are the PC's networked, and are you creating a similar profile on that PC?
If yes, why not try the Files & Settings Transfer wizard?

No, I'm not on a network at home .

I'm not familar with the file and transfer wizard. How/where is it?

What I am trying to doing is setup my new laptop. since I have many email
accounts I was just trying to find a short cut to re-entering everyone.. It
seems you can transfer from Outlook to Outlook express on the same computer.

Is there a file for accounts like .pst for email that I can easily copy and
re-insert?

No. They're kept in the registry in the key
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows
Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\yourprofilename .
Conceivable you could export that key and import it on the other machine,
but I don't guaranteee it will work.
