I just got my new laptop, and will be using it as my primary computer rather than my 'desktop' computer. Is there a way to transfer all my email in my inbox and settings and stuff to the newly setup outlook on my laptop from my desktop some how?

Thanks.

Just go to
>File
>Import and Export
>Export to a file
>Personal Folder File (.pst)
>Next (make sure Include Subfolders is checked)
>Export
--Then
<edit>Transfer .pst to laptop</edit>
>Import/Export again
>Import from another program
>Scroll down and select Personal Folder File (.pst)
>Locate it and follow a few more prompts
>Done

Hope this helps

actually the simplest is to search your hard drive for .pst and .ost files.
