I don't know if this will work with your situation Linda, but this is =
=3D how
I did the transfer:
1. Copy your 'old' PST file to the new computer - but choose anywhere =
=3D you
like.
2. Create a new profile in OL2003, and open the old PST in that profile.
If you still have problems, I would create a fresh profile and IMPORT =
=3D from
your old PST file. I know this looses some stuff like rules, but... =3D =
This
is beta software... ;-)
Incidentally, the Refresh of beta 2 is just out (or will be when they =
=3D fix
the overloaded d/l servers!), which is supposed to fix heaps of these =
=3D kind
of issues...
One more point: While this is not proven as such, I found creating a new
profile and new PST file AND choosing for that new PST file to be the =
=3D new
Unicode format, proved to be less problematic. But that may just be my
experience...
