Backup Outlook settings

I want to back up my outlook settings (not data this is in a PST)
I want the accounts, send/rec groups, Ideally the junk filters etc
I am using Outlook 2003 (Not Express, 2000, XP etc)
Any ideas?

Ideally I'd like a registry (.REG) file that I can import but something else will do

Why do I want this? - Going to rebuild my box after installing to much rubbish (!) on it over the last 6 months and I have 15+ accounts and 4 send/rec groups in outlook along with a number of Junk emailers set.

Re: Backup Outlook settings

Are you on XP?

If so the "files and settings transfer wizard" should be able to do exactly that for you nice and easy I think.

You could always test this by doing a dummy run and using the backup to test on another PC first just to be sure.

Re: Backup Outlook settings

Cheers - Looks like this might do the trick, would have been nice to see a registry file instead of a bin dat file as I could "tweak" the settings. but hey, u cannot have everything!
