Outlook Setup

Migrate POP3 email

  1. Move or copy .pst folder to \local\path
  2. Setup new email address from within Outlook (File → Account Settings) and select the .pst file when setting up the email manually
  3. Do not use the \default\path (which is My Documents\Outlook Files) as \local\path, as you might run into unknown errors if doing so
