Where does Outlook keep its mail file?

[Linux23]

I just made my win2k server a domain controller, and of course my last local profile is all screwed. Can I just copy the old mail file (not sure what the filename is) over to my new profile?

Is this possible to get all of my old email back from my old profile?


Note: Outlook XP

export(save as .pst file) then import (restore) into your new one.

better yet, install an exchange server like me....that way the server keeps track of everything...nice and neat no matter where you login to your domain!!

In here:

C:\Documents and Settings\%USER%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\OFFICE

But.. that's Office2k3. It's in the Microsoft Application data folder though 🙂

there is no local settings folder.

and chunkee, i cannot get into that profile anymore, as it is no longer in my domain.

Make sure you have the "view hidden files and folders" option turned on.
