migrating one users email

[noiz]

Is there a way to copy all email in one users folder and save it as a .pst file. so they can take it to a different network and import it. I know you can archive in outlook can you do it from exchange or do i need to save each email seperately.

thanks

You can set up a Personal Folder in the users profile. Then highligh all emails in the Inbox and move them to the personal folder. This will then be a .pst file usually called outlook.pst ( you create the file when you set up the personal folder, Outlook will ask you for a location and file name ).

You can then save this file to a CD ( or whatever depanding on side ) and take it to another system.

Is the other mail system Exchange also??

you can use a utility called exmerge....this will archive to a pst file....particularly useful for bulk archives.
