The following if for Outlook 2000 but I think it's the same for 2003
From http://content.techweb.com/winmag/fixes/2001/06.htm
Account Settings:
Outlook 2000 mail accounts are stored in the registry key
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook. To save this data,
start RegEdit and select that key in the left-hand pane. Then from the menu
select Registry | Export Registry File. Save the file to a name like
OL2KACCT.REG and put it in a safe place. Like the address list, this will
fit on a floppy for most people. To restore the account settings,
right-click the .REG file and select Merge.

No, it's not the same. That key holds other settings, but not the profile
information, which is in the Software\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem key.

That appears to be left over from Outlook 2000 IMO. For Outlook 2002,
profile information is if HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Windows Messaging Subsystem\Profiles\profilename

That information is for Outlook 2000 in Internet Mail Only mode. It's not
the same for Outlook 2000 in C/W mode, nor is it the same for OL 2002/2003.

You're right I just added a test account and it didn't appear there. The 4
other accounts that were there must have been left from a previous outlook.
Now I find myself wondering if it is safe to delete that key...

Make the slash between "Windows" and "NT a space and you've got it.
