T

Thejan Mendis

Hi all,

I have installed MS2003 with outlook. recently I had a problem with my pc
and it was needed to format. I was enable to copy all .pst files from
outlook data location. the file call outlook.pst.... sooooooo i install the
office 2003 again and replace my old pst with new files in the data
location.

everything is ok, but I have to personal folder in my left panel (folder
panel) one with a home like icon and one with folder type icon. it seems to
be that the data has repeated in each personal folder but I need only one.
how do I restore my old email message from that old Outlook.pst file without
having two Personal folder in my left folder panel.

Recreate you mail profile in Control Panel-> Mail-> button Show Pofiles...

Then connect to your old pst-file by File-> Open-> Outlook Data File...
Set that pst-file as your default delivery location by Tools-> E-mail
Accounts-> button Next
Close and start Outlook again.
