Possible to expoert email accounts?

[Hsuan-min Chou]

Hi, is there a way to export email account settings from Outlook 2003? I
will be getting a new PC sometime in the near future, and it would be great
if there was some sort of *.ini file (not that they use ini files anymore)
where I can import my email accounts. Something like the feature in Firefox
which imports IE's security settings, bookmarks, cookies, etc.

So many email accounts (such as gmail) now have all sorts of security
parameters and no longer use the usual port numbers, etc. I know I can just
write them down, but it would be great if there was something automatic (so
I don't miss anything)

Thanks for any suggestions.

No ini but you can use the Save my Settings wizard. Note that if you have
any addins and don't install them on the new machine you'll have errors.
