    I feel like an idiot for asking this, but I always seem to screw it up or forget a critical step....

    I'm still using Outlook 2003 and I need to transfer my settings and folders to my new ThinkPad. I have installed Outlook 2003 on the ThinkPad, but that's it so far.

    I know that I need to export everything in Outlook on the old system as a .pst file. Then I just import it into Outlook on the new one using the "Import and Export" function from the File menu?

    I haven't done this in almost four years, so I'm kinda (very) nervous.

    Any help is appreciated! :confused:
