I'm in the process of migrating 3 users for a client. I've been struggling for a few days and could do with some help.

The users are setup as 3 profiles (identities) on OL2000 while logged on (in OL and machine/network) as someone else (who has left). They want all 3 profiles moved to OE6, where each user logs into the machine/network seperately, and each has their own account setup in OE, without profiles/identities.

I'm aware of the following issues/concerns:
Must have Outlook installed on same machine to migrate
Will not migrate contacts, must be exported seperately as CSV.
Must have .PST file setup as default (for user) in OL2000 for successful migration.


Are there any other issues/concerns I should be aware of? Does it matter who is logged into the machine or doesn't Outlook take notice of that? Could Outlook get confused about the profiles/identities? I assume I just migrate the .PST or should I perhaps look at migrating identities? What data loss can I expect? Are there any (free) utilities out there that could assist?

Thanks so much in advance!
